Travis, Thanks a lot for your response! My master's dissertation was about using statistics to smarten up Apache Pig rule optimizer, so I would love to help out with something related, but maybe you can suggest me some interesting jiras (not complicated ones but maybe "noobies" ones) I can start with (: And yeah the labels thing is much better than creating a jura type for noobies. Thanks again!
