Welcome! And, of course, writing tests that demonstrate some of those more difficult open bugs would help make sure they don't resurface once fixed ;-) so, if you can't get a handle yet on the intricacies of the the code that contains the issue, you still might be able to demonstrate the breakage and get kudos for that.
At least, I'd give you kudos for that! --Rocky -----Original Message----- From: Dmitry Tantsur [mailto:dtant...@redhat.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 05, 2017 4:42 AM To: openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [ironic] New contributor On 03/30/2017 05:13 AM, Julian Edwards wrote: > Hi all Hi and welcome! > > I'm looking to start contributing to Ironic, and in fact I did a > couple of small patches already which are still waiting to be > landed/reviewed.
