| ### Newbies |
| |
| We tag bugs in [JIRA](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA) with "newbie" that are good for people getting started with the code base. You can find the list [here](https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20SAMZA%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20newbie%20AND%20status%20%3D%20Open). |

| ### Larger Chunks of Work |
| |
| More meaty projects are [here](https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20SAMZA%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20project%20AND%20status%20%3D%20Open). The process for working on a large project is: |
| |
| 1. Instigate discussion on the [JIRA](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA). |
| 2. Write a [design document](design-documents.html). |
| 3. Request feedback for the [design document](design-documents.html) on the Jira and the samza-dev mailing list. |
| 4. Come to an agreement on design. |
| 5. Implement design. |
