[openstack-dev] [Openstack] About advice for Contribution

If you start contributing to Nova, my advice would be to start small -- find a part of Nova
that you get to know well, and then branch out.  Nova is a large project with complex paths
through the code (RPC vs REST API vs normal method calling), so it can take a bit of time to
get used to.

You could also take a look at Oslo -- it's component-agnostic and the different parts tend to
be a bit smaller than the other components.

Hope this helps, and good luck!  We're always glad to have new contributors!

Best Regards,
Solly Ross

Subject: [openstack-dev] [Openstack] About advice for Contribution

Howdy All, 

I need a small advice. I am working from last two years on Eucalyptus. 

Recently, switched to Openstack and trying to contribute to Code-Base. 

My skills are: 

- I have good understanding of private Cloud 

- Total beginner in Python but somewhat good at Java 

Except SWIFT & NEUTRON , I am clear with other components concepts. 

so which project/component should I study to get started for Openstack 

Development ? 

Seeking for guidance, 

Thanks !
