Hi, I am a software developer and have been working in the industry since 1991. I have written Java code for Map-Reduce jobs in my recent jobs. I want to contribute to the Hadoop project, and signed up for mapreduce-dev mailing list but I am open to contributing to any Hadoop project module that needs help.
I would like to know of any beginner-level issues that I could start working on. I have gone through the Newcomers and Getting Started pages on community.apache.org. As suggested, I searched Hadoop Map/Reduce Jira for issues tagged "GSoC" or "mentor". That didn't help me identify something suitable. I would appreciate any help in getting me started as a contributor. Thanks... - Ajoy
