[ovirt-devel] Get Involved with oVirt project! Spring edition

[Sandro Bonazzola]

Hi,
Have you got some free time and do you want to get involved in oVirt
project?

Do you like the idea of having fresh disk images of recent distribution in
oVirt Glance repository?
You can help us by testing existing online images ensuring they works with
cloud-init
or creating one yourself and report your success to devel at ovirt.org.
We'll be happy to upload the images once these are ready.

Do you like Debian and do you have some programming or packaging skills?
Help us getting Vdsm running on it! We work on inclusion of Vdsm into
Debian.
We need to test and fix Vdsm Debian packages to make them working before
the next Debian freeze.
You can find all current Debian work (Vdsm and related packages) in Debian
git repositories [10].
You can follow the progress and participate on oVirt development mailing
list [11].

Are you great at packaging software? Do you prefer a distribution which is
currently unsupported by oVirt?
Do you want to have packages included in your preferred distribution? Help
getting oVirt ported there!
