I'd like to contribute

Hi everybody!

	I'm Marcelo, from Brazil. I've been working with Java (EE, SE and a
little bit of ME) for the last 6 years or so.
	
	Since I started using Java I missed module features that could enable
things like better component encapsulation and ease of configuration
management (aka, get rid of Jar hell). Some time ago I came across
JSRs 277 and 294 and then ended up knowing about project Jigsaw. Due
to my personal interest on modularization (for the JDK and
applications), I'd would like to contribute to this project. I've read
the four blog entries pointed at the project homepage, so I think I
know a little about what's going on.
	
	I'm an open source enthusiast, using Linux for 9 years and having
Java as my main language for the last 6, as mentioned above. I'm a
command-line heavy user, interested on operating systems and user of
other programming languages like C. I hold a bachelor's degree on
Computer Science and a MSc on Software Engineering. If you guys think
it's appropriate, I can send more information about my background
later.
	
	Now that I've introduced myself, do you think I could help somehow?
Is there anything a newcomer could help on the project? Any other
resources I could take a look? Any other readings?
	
	
Thank you!
Marcelo Criscuolo
