Open Stack

Hello all!

My name is Jay Bryant and I am the Cloud Storage Lead for the Lenovo 
Cloud Technology Center.  I am also the Cinder PTL and am active with 
OpenStack Upstream Institute.  Most of my project activity has been in 
Cinder, Manila, Oslo and Documentation.

I have been active in OpenStack since January of 2013 and have had the 
opportunity to mentor a number of people in becoming active OpenStack 
contributors.  I am happy to answer questions about your first patch, 
first talk as well as questions about how to review patches or 
participate in other ways.  Can even provide guidance in getting your 
accounts set up and CLAs signed.

I am based in Rochester, Minnesota so I am at UTC -6.

My IRC nick is jungleboyj .  I am pretty much always attached to IRC so 
please feel free to ping me any time between 9 am and 9 pm Central 
time.  You can find me in the #openstack-mentoring channel or 
#openstack-cinder.

I look forward to helping out anyone who needs help!

Thanks!

Jay
