Re: Any chance we can update HelpWanted?
Thanks Sally for bringing this topic. I am not sure, how frequent and effectively we (Com-Dev and other Apache projects) use this service. I think, the purpose of our this service was, the new people to Apache can find the task in which they contribute. Also, the Apache projects can post the task in which they need help. Ideally, if someone new exploring the Apache, we have good page [1] for them to start. They can explore the projects at Apache [2] as mentioned in above page and then based on their interest and knowledge base they can select the project to contribute. As per my experience, most of the project now use JIRA [3] to maintain the task to be done and if new contributor joins the project, they can communicate on respective mailing lists and pick the task as per their interest from JIRA. So, we can rethink on how we want to proceed with our HelpWanted service. Please correct me if I missing any and share your thoughts.

I'm aware of only one task from Com.Dev project - it is an update of Wikipedia pages. However, the service itself is "owned" by comdev, and lives in comdev's svn repo. What we need, then, is a help wanted task for adding features to help wanted. Hello ComDev-ers! I hope everyone is doing well. I was preparing a promotion for HelpWanted https://helpwanted.apache.org/ but noticed that some of the entries are rather old, dating back to February 2016. Is there any way this page can be updated a bit more regularly? If this is a worthwhile/used service, I'll see if we can also make it look a little more "current" as well.

Hi Sally, According to feedback from folks here, we can't edit existing tasks, but any Apache committer can mark any task as done and create a new one. I'm aware of only one task from Com.Dev project - it is an update of Wikipedia pages. Sincerely, Dmitriy Pavlov пт, 26 апр. 2019 г. в 06:13, Sally Khudairi : > Hello ComDev-ers!

Any chance we can update HelpWanted?
Hello ComDev-ers! I hope everyone is doing well. I was preparing a promotion for HelpWanted https://helpwanted.apache.org/ but noticed that some of the entries are rather old, dating back to February 2016. Is there any way this page can be updated a bit more regularly? If this is a worthwhile/used service, I'll see if we can also make it look a little more "current" as well.
