Hello Ranga,

great meeting you face to face last week at ONS. Thank you for jumping in
on a mailing list re. this. Some thoughts:

you probably did not look in the wrong place, but you are rightfully IMHO
pointing out that we as a community can do better in this regard.

May I suggest the following:

the best way to help is to jump and help on some end! For example, feel
free to simply start editing the https://wiki.opendaylight.org !

also you can contribute to http://docs.opendaylight.org via
https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Documentation; I'm sure they would love
to see you.

specifically re. code, there are at least 2 things you may be interested in:

https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Archetypes to get the Maven archetype
starter into a new project and properly automatically self tested. That is
work in progress which just FYI should actually proceed later this and next
week; I spoke with Anil from LF about next steps re. this F2F at ONS last
week. Your contributions to this project to extend the archetype will be
most welcome.

https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Controller_Core_Functionality_Tutorials:Main
this has not moved much recently, but I'm sure your contributions would be
welcome here as well.

Thanks to the contributors for great work.

Looking forward to counting you as part of the contributors! ;-)
