andrijapanic commented on issue #3401: Support for bhyve hypervisor on FreeBSD URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/3401#issuecomment-502263159 Contributions are always welcome - as long as it's done properly/with good quality. What we are, perhaps, trying to say, is that i.e. you / ixsystems / someone else interested to "sponsor" (i.e. spend hundreds and hundreds and hyndreds of hours) can do this and contribute back to community/upstream. All contributions are welcome, as long as it makes sense. I'm personally not familiar with BSD virtualisation and thus can't comment. My point of view is - if something (a feature, a new hypervisors) can be used by (there is interest) by a wider audience, then it makes perfect sense to contribute to the community - otherwise people are also running their own forks with modifications that go against wider audience interest (hopefully I was clear and you don't get me wrong here). Adding a new hypervisor is a huge thing, and beside feature code, a serious series of test needs to be developed for such huge feature. I would say this kind of work requires serious experience with CloudStack development and architecture (both system architecture and internal components a.k.a. code architecture / components) and not sure a regular Java guy (i.e. not CloudStack developer, no matter how great he/she is) can pull it on his own. I hope you understand my point here - you need to be aware of the ecosystem. If this is something you would like to continue with - let us know, we can discuss and engage fellow ACS developers. (I'm not a developer).
