Bharath,
Thank you for owning your contributor’s weight via actions & for choosing such a 💪🏼⭐️ candid & open signature that tells everyone in this ecosystem, that you not only ask questions but also back up your questions with actions. Bluntly put, you are choosing to prioritize investing time in this community & it already shows! 💙
You are a flat jakartee, just like I am. I cannot wait to contribute with you 🥋— everything counts as long as betterment is consume by that next contributor!
Cheers, Ed,
I am also interested in assisting this initiative, whichever way I can!
Bharath
Ed, Your actions are fantastic Ed!
I volunteer to help you this initiative 💜
Prioritizing
Individuals’ low Entry steps, so that any & all Jakarta EE future
contributors can jump in & add value (without having to waist their
time figuring out what the heck is going on) MATTERS!
The
factual realization BY DOING that her/his public contributions (via the
open source mediums) have merit, that are traceable & matter from
day one forges/braids a healthy community. Influencing this project has nothing to do any aspiring new contributor’s employment. This we must state in the wiki Ed! 🧸
Community first— Happy wknd 💪🏼🔋🤗
Greetings,
I have summarized some of the material that has been collected in
this thread -- here.
Feedback it welcome. I will work on getting direct links from the
existing web-site resources.
We are woefully behind in setting up project specific web-pages.
This would go a long way toward helping provide the details that
Bharath suggested in his reply from earlier today (3:34 AM PDT).
If anyone has an interest in trying to assist with this kind of
thing, please let us know.
Cheers,
-- Ed I
totally get where you are coming from. What hopefully we will have soon
is a concrete list of things to do and people to work with to get
guidance on how to do those things. The rest I think will naturally
follow.

Hi Bill,
I
am sorry - My question: "How do I contribute to Jakarta EE as an
individual committer?" could have been unclear, while considering the
plethora of work that happens in the Jakarta EE ecosystem!
As
a developer, my intention behind the question was to know - How can I
contribute to Jakarta EE project (not Jakarta EE website project -
because I presumed that it was developed already but the content on the
website is regularly managed).
The Jakarta_EE Wiki has
links to almost everything about Jakarta EE. I find the following links
to be helpful (with the additional info below) in understanding and
getting started towards contributing to Jakarta EE.
Links
More
Additional Info Jakarta EE:
1. What is the project about? 2. What is the delivery plan/timeline?
3. What has happened/been completed so far? 4. What is in progress? 5. What is pending? 6. Mailing list
Each Project:
7. Same 1-6 for each project
Regards, Bharath
All of the projects should have a CONTRIBUTING.md file, and projects
should update it as appropriate. So if someone is looking to
contribute to a specific project, that should be the place to start,
and the file can have lots of project-specific information about how
to contribute.
But my impression was that we were being asked a more general
question of "how do I contribute to Jakarta EE?" That's a much
larger question with a more complex answer, and it's not clear that
any one project, even the Jakarta EE platform project or the Jakarta
EE web site project, is the right place to put the answer to that
question. It's not clear to me that someone asking that more
general question would expect to find the answer in a
CONTRIBUTING.md file in any of those places.
I think having a page with all the advice and links we've collected
would be good, and putting it in a central place with links from
many other places seems appropriate, including links from many of
the CONTRIBUTING.md files for many projects.
Also, I agree that the current Jakarta_EE page on the wiki is way
too busy to serve as an answer to this question. The "how to
contribute" page could be linked from this cover/index page. And if
someone could redesign this cover page to be more useful, that would
be great. It's a wiki, go for it!

What
developers expect to find is a CONTRIBUTING.md file which is
short and concise. The wiki page is one click too far
away and much too loaded.

Hi All,
the wiki I initially put together is available for a while
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Jakarta_EE
I have already put the link of the above wiki to the GitHub
wiki
https://github.com/jakartaee/jakarta.ee/wiki
Please have a look!
Thanks,
Tanja

In response to Markus's point, I
suggest on the page of https://github.com/jakartaee/jakarta.ee,
add a link to the wiki Tanja is going to create. In this
way, developers can easily access it as well. Multiple
land pages points one central place.
Whatever we decide to do I think
is OK. We just need something basic to begin
engaging the community now that we can actually do
that.

Hello all,
I would suggest we use this wiki, and collect /
document information there.
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Jakarta_EE
we can do that collectively.
What do you think?

Can we create a page titled
with "How to get involved in Jakarta EE" and
list all of the useful info from Amelia, Ed
and Kevin?
I think this will help
someone in the similar situation as Bharath
and Omos.
This is a great write
up Ed. I will find a place to give it a
permanent home if you don't mind.

Subject: Re:
[jakartaee-platform-dev] How do I
contribute to Jakarta EE as an
individual committer?
I'm not sure what you already know so I'll
start from the beginning -- this is in
addition to what Reza and others have
already suggested ...
As Amelia has written, the basic home for
Jakarta is: https://jakarta.ee
I would also recommend you have a look at
the Eclipse "Get
Involved" page, to learn about
participation at Eclipse Foundation.
If you already know about all the packages
and APIs in Java EE, great. If not, there
are many references. Just Google "Java EE
Tutorial", or "Java EE Architecture" and
pick something that looks accessible for
you.
Jakarta EE has many separate sub-projects.
Find one or more that interest you, from the
EE4J
project page.
This may be enough to get you started. If
you want more, continue reading...
If you want notifications from Eclipse, you
will need to create an Eclipse account and
provide your contact details. Use this
form to create an Eclipse user
account.
With your Eclipse account, you can
subscribe to any of the sub-project's
developer e-mail lists (you can find these
on this
page, most of the Jakarta EE lists,
include the key 'ee4j' or 'jakarta'). I'd
encourage you to at least join the jakarta.ee-community
mailing list, but if you have specific
project interests, by all means, please sign
up for any developer list that looks
interesting to you.
Each sub-project has a collection of GitHub
repositories. These are listed in the
project's "Developer Resources" tab (here's
an example).
You can Follow (click the
repository star, or click the "Watch"
button) any of the project repositories at GitHub
Eclipse EE4J organization. You will
need a GitHub user ID to get notifications.
Much of the chatter about changes happens
via issues at GitHub. If you really want to
see what's happening in a project, you
should watch the respective repositories, in
addition to subscribing to the e-mail lists
mentioned above.
In addition to joining discussions on
e-mail lists, you can contribute by filing
issues at GitHub. Issues are filed against
the relevant GitHub repository.
If you want to actually work with code and
submit pull requests, you need to fill out
the Eclipse
Contributor Agreement. Without this,
you cannot submit any code, or work with any
of the non-code resource (web-pages,
documentation, etc.).
Once you have demonstrated familiarity with
a project, you can ask someone on the
project's committer team to nominate you, to
become a committer and there will be an
election process. See Wayne Beaton's article
about committer elections, here.
(Wayne's blog might be something you want to
subscribe to as he often provides insight
and guidance about things going on at
Eclipse.) After that -- you might decide you
want to take on a Project Lead role -- you
do that by getting someone to nominate you
for Lead (it's much the same as the
committer election).
If there is more I can help you with,
please don't hesitate to ask.

please follow the Java EE Guardians

finally move forward the group will

(hopefully in conjunction with or led by

Rest assured folks

Hello All,
Just like
Bharath, I am a Java EE/Jakarta EE
developer but with lesser years of
experience. I would also like to
contribute to the development of
Jakarta EE.
Please let us

development of Jakarta EE in anyway
possible.
