Hi Nagasitaram,

Looks like Thiago grabbed that issue over the weekend.  Are you still looking 
to help?

We've got a few different initiatives going on.  Maybe you have some preference 
in where we can steer you:

 - Jakarta EE 8 compliance: Immediate: some help getting people to know how to 
run the TCK. Long-term: help fixing tests

 - Jakarta EE 9 compliance: Immediate: help kicking the tires on the prototype 
'jakarta' TomEE server; i.e. writing apps that use jakarta.ws.rs.Post, 
jakarta.persistence.Entity, etc and report issues.

 - Bug fixing:  We've got 550 open issues.  Hard part is picking one.

 - User list: there might be some questions you know the answers to.  This may 
seem small, but if "Einstein is mopping the floor" because there is no janitor, 
getting contributions from either a janitor or another Einstein can change the 
world. :)  One is easier than the other :)

Let me now what kind of things sound interesting and I'll see what might fit.
