Hi, I am doing my masters in computer sceince. I am new to hadoop.I would like to subscribe myself to this project and also I would like to contribute to this issue hadoop mapreduce/mapreduce-2257
Name: Gopikannan Venugopalsamy Project:distcpy can blocks in parallel Name of mentor: Help me find one. Planned start date: Any date as early as possible. Expected mid-term evaluation date: Let my mentor decide that. I am new so it will be difficult for me to say that. End date: not sure. Expected benefits to the Apache Community as a result of my work: I can contribute to the code and documentation of the project. Approximate number of hours I intend to work on the project each week and the number of weeks I expect it to take: 30 hours/week and 2 months. A description of why I want to undertake this project and what I hope to gain from it and the mentor programme: Till now I have developed some applications using hadoop and now I would like to contribute to the hadoop project itself. So that I could learn more about it. A brief CV of my skills: I have finished my Btech in Information Technology with 7.71 cgpa I am pursuing my masters in NCState University, USA gpa:3.45 I can program in C, C++, and Java. I think this will help you find me a mentor and help me contribute to hadoop. Since I am totally new to this project.It would be great if any one could give me some guidance about how to approach this issue. Thanks, gopi
