> 43: Many OpenJDK projects require a tracking issue to be filed in the [JDK Bug System (JBS)](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/) before a change can be pushed. This is the case for instance for the JDK and the JDK-Updates projects. In order to get write access to JBS you need to be an [Author](https://openjdk.java.net/bylaws#author) in an OpenJDK project. For your first changes, ask your sponsor to help you create the issue.

The Contributor role means you won't need a sponsor anymore. You can read more about [OpenJDK Project Roles](https://openjdk.java.net/bylaws#project-roles).

I think you mean **Committer** here, not Contributor.
