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!

Hi Chris, I have created a new class that performs a function I needed for my pipeline and I would like to contribute it to OODT. I created an ExternPreconditionComparator class. I needed one and it seemed like a logical thing to do since you already have lots of 'Extern'-type classes in the system. How do I go about contributing this class to OODT? Should I create a feature request in JIRA and assign it to myself? What's the process I should follow? Here are the details of what I'd like to, please advise. Add a new file (ExternPreconditionComparator.java) to this folder: oodt/trunk /metadata/src/main/java/org/apache/oodt/cas/metadata/preconditions/ Add a new file (example external script) to this folder: oodt/trunk /crawler/src/main/resources/extern-scripts/ Modify the following two files to add example usage for this new comparator class: oodt/trunk /crawler/src/main/resources/precondition-beans.xml oodt/trunk/mvn/archetypes/radix/src/main/resources/archetype-resources/cra wler/src/main/resources/policy/ precondition-beans.xml If there is anything else that needs to be done to properly incorporate this new class, please let me know.
