Hi all, I am a newbie and was looking to pick up a quick task as my first (SOLR-13205 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13205>). However, I don’t seem to be able to assign it to myself. Can someone please assign it to me? If I am missing something obvious, let me know how I can do it myself.
There is some additional cleanup that I am planning on doing as a part of that task - There are a couple of places that do a charAt. I am planning on doing a null or empty check for the field and use the default if so. - Replace charAt with startsWith anyway since default can be null or empty. - Planning on also throwing an exception during init() if the arguments are not good. Let me know if someone disagrees. I also had another request. I am a fairly experienced engineer, but very new to open source and Apache. I am super interested in this space and that’s why I am looking to contribute substantially I hope. Is anyone willing to be a mini-mentor for me? I was just hoping for someone to answer some n00b questions in the beginning, that may cut down my spinning time in the beginning. Nothing super formal, and I promise to not take more than an hour a week at max. That time I would expect to dwindle down to nothing after a month or so. Thanks. Pramod
