Becoming a contributor

[Tyler Hale]

Kafka devs,

I'm looking to start contributing to kafka and have been reading over the 
getting started and contributing guides.  How do I get added to the 
contribution list so that I can assign myself JIRAs?

Thanks,
Tyler

I know this is a bit more than intended than the original JIRA, but have you 
thought about wrapping these functions into a single CLI, where these kinds of 
reusable methods/tasks would all be in one place?

> in the kafka consumer for example, the last line is :
> https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh#L21
> {code}
> exec $(dirname $0)/kafka-run-class.sh kafka.tools.ConsoleConsumer "$@"
> {code}
> if I create a symlink using 
> {code}
> ln -s
> {code}
> it doesn't resolve the right directory name because of $(dirname $0) 
> I believe the right way is to do:
> {code}
> "$(dirname "$(readlink -e "$0")")"
> {code}
>  
> Any thoughts on that before I do a PR?
