Fwd: Start contributing with Libvirt (Finding a mentor or helpful tips)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi everybody!

I sent an e-mail to Daniel asking about contributing to the libvirt community for free.
So, I copied the e-mail to the libvirt mailing list as Daniel suggested me. If anyone can help me I'd be pleased.

Thanks very much!

Hi Daniel.

My name is Julio and I sent this e-mail because I would like to contribute with libvirt. Moreover, I follow the libvirt mailing list for a long time and have read the ideas page of libvirt, qemu and KVM of Google Summer of Code program. I thought the ideas very interesting but I didn't have time to propose my ideais or submit a patch. But I don't know a good way to start doing that.

I want to contribute with libvirt for free (not like GSoC who pays a paycheck for it). I think that contributing with a project like libvirt enhances some of my programming skills. Today I work with Linux distribution management and not with programing itself. However, I'm finding some troubles to start. For example:

- Can I fix a random open bug?
- How to understand which bug can be easier to solve?
- How to follow the conversation of the mailing list? Sometimes I feel so lost.

I was looking for a mentor (if you know someone who could help me) or a person who can help me to follow the right way to start it.
Thanks very much.
