Hi, We have collected information about starting development with Apache POI at https://poi.apache.org/devel/index.html
It should be mostly up to date as far as I see. Also the sub-pages https://poi.apache.org/devel/subversion.html and https://poi.apache.org/devel/guidelines.html provide additional information. Please let us know if you run into roadblocks so we can help out and also update these pages if necessary. Dominik.
