Hello Beam community, I am also a new member, and I feel a little better knowing that there others on the same boat:)
My name is Justin and I work as a full stack engineer for Neustar, a marketing analytics company in San Diego. Over the past few weeks I have been getting more familiar with Beam via documentation, papers, videos, and the old email archives and I am very excited to start making contributions. Thank you Altay for the useful links! -Justin Tumale On Tue, Aug 15, 2017 at 11:19 AM, Ahmet Altay <al...@google.com.invalid> wrote: > Welcome both of you! > > Some helpful starting points: > - Contribution guide [1] > - Unassigned starter issues in JIRA [2] > > Ahmet > > [1] https://beam.apache.org/contribute/contribution-guide/ > [2] > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-2632?jql= > project%20%3D%20BEAM%20AND%20status%20in%20(Open%2C%20Reopened)%20AND% > 20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20starter%20AND% > 20assignee%20in%20(EMPTY)%20ORDER%20BY%20created%20DESC% > 2C%20priority%20DESC > > On Tue, Aug 15, 2017 at 11:13 AM, Umang Sharma <umang....@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > Hi Gris, > > Nice to meet you. > > > > I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce me to you and everyone > else > > in the dev team. > > > > I’m m Umang Sharma.
