Hi Alessandro,
Yes, this is the right place.
Generally, the workflow for contribution is clone the github mirror, do
something, then send a pull request.
https://github.com/apache/jena/
Cloning and running maven at the top level should work.
OSGi - Jena does not use OSGI itself and you don't need to know anything
about it to work on Jena. We do produce an OSGi bundle from the plain jars.

Hi Andy,
thank you very much for your answer. I am very much interested in SPARQL
and graph processing in general so I think that JENA-967 could be a very
good start. Still I think that it will take me some time to solve it as I
need before to understand how the code is organized :)
Regarding OSGi, unfortunately I never heard of it, you are speaking of this
one <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSGi>?
I have seen the Fuseki bugs and I will give a look to them.
Is this mailing list the right place where to ask doubts or questions on
how to compile or how things are working?

Hi to everyone,
I am Alessandro Seganti and I am a physicist and I work since a couple of
years as a programmer in Poland. I mainly work on Semantic Web related
stuff and I was interested in contributing to Jena because I am using it
(together with a lot of other semantic web related components), I think
that it is great and I would like to help the project in some way.
The problem I have is that it is quite difficult to understand where to
start. Could you give me some hints of some simple problems currently in
the JIRA tasks/bugs from which I could start?
Thank you very much
Alessandro
Hi Alessandro - welcome to the Jena developer community, good to see you
here.
What sort of things are you interested in? System issues? UI? OWL? SPARQL?
JENA-967 (implement afn:sprintf) looks to be a small self-contained
JIRA for SPARQL extension function.
There are various UI/javascript reports about Fuseki.
If you have OSGi experience, JENA-913 needs an expert.
