Who === If you are a new contributor and are still searching for a way to contribute to Nova, this mail is for you. If you are not a newbie but have a bit bandwidth available, you're welcome too :)
Why === Why you should bother? * It's an easy way to start contributing * I can offer you to help with: * pushing patches, * debugging the gate, * dealing with reviews * and learning the general workflow * you will learn about different functional areas and can give back to the community What ==== There is effort ongoing to improve the way Nova offers its configuration options to the operators [1]. In short, you have to read and understand code and describe the impact of config options as a black box so that the operators don't have to read code to understand what they are configuring. At the end it will look like these two patches: * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/244177/ * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/246465/ How === The organization is done with an etherpad [2] which contains: * what needs to be done * how it has to be done Just ping me (markus_z) in the #openstack-nova channel (I'm in the UTC+1 timezone) or grab something out of the etherpad [2] and give it a try.
