Contributions summary:Chun-hung primarily contributed to the Apache Mesos project by enhancing the functionality of the URI fetcher plugins. Their work focused on integrating timeout mechanisms for the `curl` command within the `DockerFetcherPlugin` and `CurlFetcherPlugin`. They also added a feature to abort stalled artifact fetching, adding a timeout flag (`--fetcher_stall_timeout`) to prevent containers from getting stuck during download. Furthermore, the user made changes in `src/resource_provider/storage/provider.cpp` to handle volume management.
