Hi everyone, When I send this out several months ago, Danny Al-Gaaf stepped up and submitted an amazing number of patches cleaning up the most concerning issues that Coverity had picked up. His attention has been directed elsewhere more recently, but there are still a number of outstanding issues in Coverity's tracker that are reasonably quick and easy to resolve and will make our ability to identify newly introduced defects much simpler. Coverity Scan makes it really easy to participate: just create an account and I can grant you access to the Ceph project. If you're interested in contributing here (and it's an easy way to quickly start working with the Ceph code), let me know!
