While most contributions are code, +there are other ways to contribute to Accumulo: + +* answer questions on mailing lists +* review pull requests +* verify and test new releases +* update the Accumulo website and documentation + +Contributions are reviewed (via GitHub pull requests) by +the community before being merged by a committer. + +This document provides basic instructions for contributing to Accumulo. If you are looking for more information, check out the more comprehensive [contributor guide](/contributors-guide/). + +## Issues + +Any contribution should have a corresponding issue. Accumulo uses [JIRA] for issue tracking. Before creating an issue, +you will need to create an [Apache JIRA account][jira-signup]. If you need help finding an issue to work on, check out +the [open issues labeled for newbies][newbie-issues] or [contact us][contact]. + +## Repositories + +Contributions can be made to the following repositories. While the general contribution workflow is +described below, repositories have special instructions in their `CONTRIBUTING.md` file which can be +viewed by clicking on the `C` in the Links column below. Review comment: I am following [what was done in Fluo](https://fluo.apache.org/how-to-contribute/) but if you don't think it's clear I am sure others will. I am OK if `CONTRIBUTING.md` is used instead. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
