Welcome to the Community Development project site. Our aim here is to help newcomers to The Apache Software Foundation take their first steps on their way to being a part of our community. We do not focus on any specific projects here, we focus on the common structures and processes you will find in the majority of ASF projects. Our goal is to help you understand how the ASF works and give you the confidence to participate more directly. This is an h1: seeking assistanceThe first rule of engaging with an open source project, not just those here in the ASF, is to research first, ask questions second. Therefore, please review the materials we have on this site (which admittedly are thin on the ground at this early stage). If you don't find what you need then ask for assistance on our mailing list at dev@community.apache.org (first subscribe by sending a mail to dev-subscribe@community.apache.org).

Now an h4 with some text...This is the text of the h4... h6: Navigate spaceStarting pointsThis project is at a very early stage, other than the mailing list mentioned above we don't have many starting points for you, but here's a list of what we are creating - please have a look at what there is and feel free to ask questions so we know what parts to flesh out first. First ContributionsThe second rule of engaging with open source projects, especially those in the ASF, is that the more you give the more you get. Most people assume that newcomers are unable to contribute, however, you will be surprised at how much you can help. Since we aim to be a place for newcomers to learn about the ASF as a whole and you are (probably) a newcomer any feedback you can give or unanswered questions you can ask will help us improve what we offer to those who come afterwards. Feedback can be provided via the mailing list dev@community.apache.org (subscribe first with an email to dev-subscribe@community.apache.org)
