Hello all,

We are happy to announce the relaunch of the OpenStack Mentoring program, and we are kicking off with some changes to the program that we hope will better serve the community.

Previously mentoring occurred through one on one partnering of mentor and mentee; this new program will focus on providing mentorship through goal-focused cohorts of mentors.  This change will allow mentoring responsibilities to be shared among each group's mentors.

The initial cohorts will be:

- Get your first patch merged

- First CFP submission / Give your first talk

- Become COA certified / study for COA

- Deploy your first Cloud

If you are interested in joining as a mentor or mentee, please sign up at :
