This topic is a very important and critical area to solve in the OpenStack community.
I personally feel and keep raising this issue wherever I get the opportunity. 

To develop or maintain any software, the very first thing we need is to have enough developer resources.
Without enough developers (either open or closed source), none of the software can survive.

OpenStack current situation on contributors is not the same as it was few years back.  Almost every
project is facing the less contributor issue as compare to requirements and incoming requests. Few
projects already dead or going to be if we do not solve the less contributors issue now.

I know, TC is not directly responsible to solve this issue but we should do something or at least find
the way who can solve this.

What do you think about what role TC can play to solve this? What platform or entity can be used by TC to
raise this issue? or any new crazy Idea?
