D R,
Thanks for your interest in BIRT. What areas of the BIRT technology are you
interested in participating in? Are you actively working on BI technology
today? Curious to know more about where your interest lies.
Eclipse has a good process in place for people interested in contributing to
a project. You can get details on this from the Eclipse Development Process
document (see
http://www.eclipse.org/org/documents/Eclipse%20Development%2 0Process%202003_11_09%20FINAL.pdf).
As was mentioned in an earlier posting in this newsgroup: "The quick and
short answer is that you earn the right to be contributor. On other
projects, I seen this done via doing code patches, bug fixes and etc. On the
WTP project, there are people that have a related open source project or
plug-in and have donated it to the WTP project and became contributor this
way. I would expect this project to follow this process."
For BIRT, there is going to be opportunity to look at the code and
contribute using this process over the coming months as we upload more code
to the Eclipse CVS repository. In addition, a core goal for BIRT is to
provide extension points for the technology -- which will provide additional
opportunities. For example, adding new chart types to the charting
capabilities.
Regards,
Paul Clenahan
