From 176a1f50f6b253665720e1918868385901cec13c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: gkodinov Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2026 11:14:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] MDEV-38673: Focus the pick-a-task wording in CONTRIBUTING.md The wording on how to pick a task in CONTRIBUTING.md is a bit weak. A more focused message is needed to highlight the tasks that are available for people to work on. --- CONTRIBUTING.md | 9 ++++++--- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/CONTRIBUTING.md b/CONTRIBUTING.md index c6744bee19999..f7e1c67721334 100644 --- a/CONTRIBUTING.md +++ b/CONTRIBUTING.md @@ -19,10 +19,13 @@ MariaDB Server has a vibrant community contributing in a wide range of areas.
