Yes, it is generally a good idea to fill out the ICLA before contributing any meaningful code. The ICLA (and instructions on what to do with it) are here - https://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.pdf > And wanted to ask any plans for GSOC 2025? Yes! I think this came up in a different email thread, so we can defer conversation to there - https://lists.apache.org/thread/o3mwncq0k4c58c630n49l7bvhq74o2wj Thanks, Danny On Tue, Feb 11, 2025 at 10:26 PM SIDDHARTH SALIAN < siddharthsalia...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello there, > > 1.
