Kind of what Paul said, Val. I also added some instructions on Github on how to contribute:
https://github.com/apache/oodt/ You can replace the Git stuff with SVN commands and the workflow should be the same. Also for some context, here is a guide that I made in OODT based on a very awesome guide made years ago by Dennis Kubes in the Nutch community: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OODT/Getting+started+with+Apach e+OODT Cheers!
