[DISCUSS] Using the new 'help wanted' tool from comdev

2016-05-12 Thread Sean Busbey
Hi folks! ASF comdev has put up a great new tool for funneling in new folks: https://helpwanted.apache.org/ How about we brainstorm a few things here (maybe some beginner JIRAs we can flesh out a little?) and then file? -Sean

Sean, We talked in the past about being good at tagging JIRAs as beginner. That still seems like a good approach. Can we simply have the task be a link to a JIRA report of those tagged items? Do we have any good information showing that folks interested in helping apache projects are using that?

It's been in a few talks at ApacheCon. We could ask on comdev if they have stats on actual use thus far. I believe the way helpwanted is supposed to work is a new person browses to a specific task and then signs up to work on it, so I suspect an umbrella entry wouldn't work. On Thu, May 12, 2016

Always in favor of attracting new contributors to the project. Do we need to manually submit each request manually or is there a way we can automate submitting our "beginner" tagged Jiras (assuming that's what we want to do)? Joe - - - - - - Joseph Percivall linkedin.com/in/Percivall e: joe

Helpwanted is currently fairly empty. This is our chance. :) Let’s add some 5-10 issues from Jira. At least this raise NiFi awareness. Thanks Toivo -- View this message in context: http://apache-nifi-developer-list.39713.n7.nabble.com/DISCUSS-Using-the-new-help-wanted-tool-from-comdev
