I think the best way for this to happen, is for the code to be published in a couple of logical patches to reviews.apache.org as a way to get community agreement that we should bring it into the codebase.
See: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Review+Board+Guidelines You should re-base against master first. Once we have the review(s) available, I can start a formal VOTE to accept the donation (I assume that this is a large chunk of work), and then I can work with you as the sponsor of the donation to the ASF. Once the IP assignment is handled, we would likely commit the code into a feature branch, so that tests could be added (if they aren't in the initial donation) before we bring it into master. Pedro, does this work for you? -chip On Tue, Sep 17, 2013 at 05:05:33AM +0000, Animesh Chaturvedi wrote: > Pedro > > We are excited to learn about Contrail's plugin for CloudStack.
