Open Stack

I would have to agree with Thomas.
Many organizations have already worked out strategies and have processes in place to cover contributing to  OpenStack which
Cover all official project. Contributing to additional non-OpenStack projects may introduce additional barriers in large 
Organizations which require  ip plan/legal approval on a per project basis.

It may be easier for you, but it certainly isn't inside big companies, e.g. HP have pretty broad approvals for contributing to (official) openstack projects, where as individual approval may be needed to contribute to none-openstack projects.
