Create yourself a bugzilla account and then add comments to the bug report. Those comments are automatically sent to the dev list so everyone here will see them. When you have a patch the fixes the issue you can add the patch as an attachment.

Re: Tomcat newbie developer tasks?
Hi all, Can anyone suggest some trivial newbie projects for the Tomcat code base? I don't care how menial it is, typo changes, logging, testing (something specific), etc. I've been lurking on the list for awhile and want to start getting my hands dirty.

Given that it is always possible that I missed something in my testing, I usually add something along the lines of "...

Bear with us if it takes a little while. In terms of what's next, I'd suggest browsing through the bugzilla reports and picking the ones that look interesting.

Take a look at the following bugs. They shouldn't be too hard and if you get stuck just shout. Don't be surprised if some of these have been fixed in the latest 5.5.x & 6.0.x release - just close the bug report with a note of the version you tested. https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38570 https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38726 https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39013 These are all 5.5.x bugs. Generally, I'd suggest testing in the following order: - trunk - 6.0.x - 5.5.x Provide a patch for the first one that is broken and check that it can be easily ported to the remaining versions. If the port to a branch isn't simple, provide a patch specifically for that branch. Patches (in diff -u format) should be attached to bugzilla. If you need help, ask a question on the dev list.
