Open Stack

Hi all,

I was reading over a IMHO insightful hacker news thread last night:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8068547

Labeled/titled: 'I made a patch for Mozilla, and you can do it too'

It made me wonder what kind of mentoring support are we as a community offering to newbies (a random google search for 'openstack mentoring' shows mentors for GSoC, mentors for interns, outreach for women... but no mention of mentors as a way for everyone to get involved)?

Looking at the comments in that hacker news thread, the article itself it seems like mentoring is stressed over and over as the way to get involved.

Has there been ongoing efforts to establish such a program (I know there is training work that has been worked on, but that's not exactly the same).

Thoughts, comments...?
