Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-6791:
----------------------------------------
After you have studied the above links and read the general information, a
good next step would be to select one of the existing Derby bugs and
try to work on it.
For example, use the Derby issues database and the JIRA search tool
to search for
Issue & fix info: Newcomer
When I did this today there were 114 unresolved issues in this category.
See if you can find one that is interesting, and study it, and see if you
can reproduce it, and possibly suggest a potential fix.

> For the 2015 Google Summer of Code, I am offering to mentor a

> The Derby JIRA has collected the community's knowledge about
> known bugs in Derby, and there are plenty of bugs for us to work on.
> If you take on this project, with assistance from me, you'll:
> - select Derby issues from the Derby issue to fix
> - reproduce those problems by writing and running tests
> - develop patches to address the problems
> - work with the community to get the patches reviewed
> - have your reviewed and accepted contributions committed to the next Derby
> release.
