Get Involved with the oVirt Project! Spring 2017 Edition
by Sandro Bonazzola
Hi,
Got some time to spare? Join us on the oVirt project!
oVirt is a feature rich server virtualization management system with
advanced capabilities. It also provides a crucial venue for user and
developer cooperation, and is the first truly open and comprehensive data
center virtualization management initiative.
If you are new to oVirt, we recommend that you visit the develop
<https://www.ovirt.org/develop/> page to learn more about the project, and
the working with Gerrit
<https://www.ovirt.org/develop/dev-process/working-with-gerrit/> page for
more about our code review system. If you haven’t worked with Gerrit
before, we recommend you visit the introduction to Gerrit
<https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation> page.
On our community page <https://www.ovirt.org/community/> you’ll discover
the many ways in which you can contribute to the project, even without
programming skills.
More suggestions? Below you’ll find other ways in which you can contribute
to the oVirt project.
Keep ‘em Fresh
Like the idea of having fresh disk images of your favorite distribution in
the oVirt Glance repository? You can help in two ways: First, test existing
online images to ensure that they work with cloud-init. Second, create an
online image and report your success to devel(a)ovirt.org. We’ll be happy to
upload the images once they are ready.
Get Vdsm Running on Debian
If you like Debian and have programming or packaging skills, you can help
with the ongoing effort to get VDSM running on Debian
<https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/debian-support-...>.
All the current work on Debian (VDSM and related packages) can be found in
the Debian git repositories <http://git.debian.org/>. You can also keep up
to date on how the work is progressing by subscribing to the oVirt devel
mailing list <http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/devel>.

Port oVirt to Your Favorite Distribution
Are you sure-handed at packaging software, and using a distribution
currently unsupported by oVirt? Help to get oVirt ported to any of the
following distributions:
Fedora <http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/devel/2015-September/011426.html>
CentOS <https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Virtualization>
Gentoo <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/OVirt>. Also, check out Google Summer
of Code <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code/2016/Ideas> to
learn how you can contribute to Gentoo and get paid for it!
Debian
<http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/debian-support-f...>:
Archlinux <http://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/arch-linux/>
OpenSUSE <https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Virtualization:oVirt>
Get into DevOps
If you love DevOps and find yourself counting stable builds in Jenkins CI
while trying to fall asleep, then the oVirt infrastructure team is looking
for you! Join us and dive into the latest and coolest DevOps tools today!
Check out these open tasks
<https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=6.>.
You can also help by telling us how you use oVirt in your DevOps
environment. Email us at devel(a)ovirt.org (Please use [DevOps] in the
subject line. For more information on oVirt DevOps, visit oVirt
infrastructure docs
<http://ovirt-infra-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/> and oVirt
infra documentation
<http://www.ovirt.org/develop/infra/infrastructure-documentation/>.
Improve the oVirt System Testing
Make oVirt system testing
<https://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-system-tests.git;a=summary> - and
the Lago system <https://github.com/lago-project/lago> that runs it - even
better. Visit Lago project documentation
<http://lago.readthedocs.io/en/stable/> to learn how to run the test suite
yourself.
More Bugs, No Coding Required
No time for DevOps and you are not a programer? You can still contribute.
Here are some easy bugs to fix
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=classification%3Aovir...>
that don’t require a single line of code.
Tests to Run
Do you prefer to test things? Here are some test cases you can try
<http://www.ovirt.org/develop/infra/testing/>, using nightly snapshots
<http://www.ovirt.org/develop/dev-process/install-nightly-snapshot/>.
Switching to Fedora 25
For oVirt 4.2, support for Fedora will be based on Fedora 25. You can help
to get it ready by running nightly snapshots
<http://www.ovirt.org/develop/dev-process/install-nightly-snapshot/> and
reporting any issues.
Create Your Own Test Cases
We’d love you to contribute some much needed test cases for oVirt features
<http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/>.
Get Creative
You are welcome to contribute artwork, such as oVirt live backgrounds and
covers, release banners, stickers, and t-shirt designs. Check out Fedora
artworks <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork#Resources> for inspiration.
Get Alternative
Into alternative architectures? Test ppc64le
<https://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-ovirt-41-release/ppc64le/> and aarch64
<https://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-ovirt-41-release/aarch64/> packages
from CentOS Virt SIG.
