Open Stack

Hi folks,

Sorry was not be able to make it to the First Contact SIG discussions in
Dublin. The only suggestion I have is to have as many project as possible
to have a dedicated FC SIG wiki page for localize onboarding support.

For example like what we do in Cyborg:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Cyborg/FirstContact I've captured all the
discussions of the China Dev Group via a Chinese streaming site and also
put the wiki link in the wechat group description, so that new developer
know where to go to for a localize support.

For communciation tools, per irc  I agree converge to #openstack-dev is
better than maintaining some independent channels. But also from my
experience video conf in native lang is more effective.
