| <p>The best way to contribute to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) is to get involved with |
| one of our many Apache project communities. The best way to ask general questions |
| about community involvement is to read about <a href="http://community.apache.org/">Community Development at Apache</a>.</p> |
| <p>The ASF is made up of over <a href="http://projects.apache.org/">300 different projects</a>, with many |
| new project submissions (or podlings) coming into the <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/">Apache Incubator</a> every year. |
| So no matter what kinds of technology or software you use, we most |
| likely have an Apache project that you'll be interested in.</p> |
| <h2 id="use-apache-products-and-give-us-feedback">Use Apache products and give us feedback<a class="headerlink" href="#use-apache-products-and-give-us-feedback" title="Permalink">¶</a></h2> |
| <p>Using Apache products, asking (and sometimes answering) questions, reporting bugs |
| and making feature requests are critical contributions to the success of the Apache project community. |
| User feedback helps drive our projects and the technologies behind them.</p> |

| <p>Beyond simple user activities, it's great to see users becoming contributors |
| by helping with the |
| development of Apache projects. This can mean getting involved with the |
| discussions on the development mailing lists, answering other users' questions, |
| providing patches for bug fixes or features, and helping to improve developer and end-user |
| documentation.</p> |

| <h2 id="become-a-committer">Become a committer<a class="headerlink" href="#become-a-committer" title="Permalink">¶</a></h2> |
| <p>We love to see contributors showing commitment. Projects invite committed participants to become committers and help shape the future of a project.</p> |
| <p>Apache is a meritocracy. Once someone has shown sufficient sustained |
| commitment to a project by helping out and contributing work to it |
| (and the ASF), the project may vote to invite that person to become a committer.</p> |
| <p>How does one show commitment?</p> |
| <p>Get involved and <strong>contribute</strong> via the user and developer |
| email lists, Wiki and forums (if any); extend or improve the documentation; |
| work on bugs listed in the issue tracker or submit code patches. Answering other users' |
| questions is a great way to get started, as is suggesting patches or improvements |
| to <a href="../dev/contributors.html#websites">Apache project websites</a>.</p> |
| <p>Note that becoming a committer is not just about submitting some patches; |
| it's also about helping out on the development and user discussion lists, |
| helping with documentation and the issue tracker, and showing long-term interest.</p> |
