Making a Contribution

Mahout is always looking for contributions, especially in the areas of documentation. See this Wiki for details on contributing: How to contribute

We provide a list of items in JIRA that are aimed at new contributors and should be fairly easy to start on, these are labeled with MAHOUT_INTRO_CONTRIBUTE .
