Open Stack

Hello,

I've been looking at Solum for about a couple of months now, with the 
goal of eventually contributing to this project. First off, my apologies 
if this is the wrong place for my question.

I'm currently getting familiar with project structure, source code, and 
also trying to set up the dev env via Vagrant, following the Quick Start 
Guide:

http://solum.readthedocs.org/en/latest/getting_started/

Here I need some advice. During my most recent attempt to set up the dev 
env two days ago, I hit two problems: after devstack provisioned OS, 
q-dhcp and q-l3 were not running. The former refused to start due to an 
updated version requirement for dnsmasq (see 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/1347153) that was not 
met, the latter did not start due to problems with openvswitch.

I resolved both issues manually in the VM, all the while thinking that I 
must be doing something wrong. (Well I'm pretty sure I am.) On the other 
hand, I had similar problems getting the dev env up during earlier 
tries. So what is the right way to get a consistent setup of a Solum dev 
env? Are the instructions from the Quick Start guide linked above not 
current? Do I need to configure different branches/tags, or use 
different repos all together?

Sorry again if this is the wrong place to ask!
I hope I can make useful contributions soon.

Regards,

Alex
