[infinispan-dev] Interested in lending a hand

[Manik Surtani]

Hi Olaf

Welcome to the mail list!  :-)

I believe someone (Mircea) is already working on ISPN-272 as we speak, but there are lots of other interesting things you can take on.  Are there any specific areas of interest or expertise you may have?

Cheers
Manik
