Unnikrishnan N.:

Just curious, which are all the modules need help with? I am
interested in contributing.
Thanks.

There are a lot of methods in File that need to be implemented. That
should be a reasonable place to start. We have some bugs in Dir#glob
that could use some attention too.

If you want a good self-contained project that will take some time, take
a look at implementing #pack and #unpack.

Thanks,

I’ll add byte array support to MutableString soon, meanwhile work with
List or byte[] in #pack and #unpack methods. Or start with File.
Maybe I can make MutableStr before you need it for pack/unpack.
