Are you looking for some easy tasks to do so you can get involved with Nova? We've created some low hanging fruit blueprints to get started with:
https://edge.launchpad.net/nova/+milestone/low-hanging-fruit One of these tasks is cleaning up the pylint and pep8 violations. You can find our current stats at: http://hudson.openstack.org/job/nova-pep8/ http://hudson.openstack.org/job/nova-pylint/ Cleaning up these violations will help normalize the code and increase readability. Some of you may have noticed a branch went in starting this, and I'm going to continue cleaning files as I have time. If you want to help, pick a file and clean! I setup an etherpad so we can claim files to prevent duplicating work. I also listed the commands you can use to check the files manually as you work on them. http://etherpad.openstack.org/nova-pylint On a related note, I'd like to propose we not merge any new branches if it increases the pylint/pep8 violation count. This allows for branches fixing old code to not require conversion yet, but any new, original code should conform. Monty is working on the merge system to make this rule automated. What do folks think? If we all grab a few files we can get down to zero violations in no time. :) -Eric _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~nova Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~nova More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
