+<h2>Skill set - documentation</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Develop a 'writing a driver' from scratch tutorial that covers all
the steps to developing a new DNS, Storage, Compute etc driver.</li>
+<li>Improve the provider feature matrix, it's difficult to navigate and a
more screen friendly format needs to be found <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/supported_providers.html#provider-matrix";>page</a></li>
+<li>Develop a "Libcloud in 30 minutes" tutorial that takes you
through installation, getting started and loading up your cloud and using the
driver.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Web Authoring</h2>
+
+<p>Our website is written using Jekyll, Markdown and HTML. </p>
+
+<p><a href="http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/libcloud/site/trunk/";>Source
Code</a></p>
+
+<p>We would really value</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Additional copy on the homepage explaining what the project does and
potential use cases</li>
+<li>Develop out the community pages</li>
+<li>Extend the Using pages to link to the documentation site</li>
+<li>Integrating video/GIF tutorials on the homepage</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Video tutorials</h2>
+
+<p>Complimenting our documentation with video tutorials (or GIF tutorials) on
basic concepts and how to use the library would be really useful for
beginners.</p>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Advanced Python development</h2>
+
+<h3>Compute driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>The base <code>Node</code> class is missing standard fields to describe
the CPU, Memory and Disk information for the Node. Propose, design and develop
an implementation for this problem.</li>
+<li>Update the Azure driver to support the ARM APIs.</li>
+<li>Solve the <code>create_node</code> problem - (this is a big one). The
driver classes are interchangable with the large and important exception of
<code>create_node</code>. Some drivers use implicitly required
<code>kwargs</code>, some require additional
+named keyword arguments, like the GCE driver requires the project name. This
means any code needs to switch the argument set depending on the driver.
+We need a method(s) in the base driver which is consistent, and can be used
across drivers. This would most likely use an Adapter or Proxy design pattern.
</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Container driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Extend the <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/container/drivers/kubernetes.html";>Kubernetes</a>
driver to implement a <a
href="https://cloud.google.com/container-engine/";>Google Container Engine</a>
driver</li>
+<li>Develop an Azure Container Service driver</li>
+<li>Test and extend the Docker driver</li>
+<li>Test and extend the Kubernetes driver for compatibility with the 1.2
release</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Backup driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Implement a driver using Amazon EBS snapshots</li>
+<li>Implement an Azure Backup driver</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>DNS driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Implement an Azure <a
href="https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/dns/";>DNS</a> driver</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Testing and experience</h2>
+
+<p>We have 2 major changes that need testing against real life</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><p>The <code>requests</code> implementation of our base HTTP classes, see
my <a
href="http://libcloud.apache.org/blog/2016/04/06/requests-support.html";>previous
post</a> on details. This needs thoroughly testing against</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Compute classes, POST, GET methods</li>
+<li>AWS auth token signing</li>
+<li>Storage drivers using PUT and file streams</li>
+</ul></li>
+<li><p>The container base class promoting to a "stable" state</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Testing the docker driver against different implementations and auth
mechanisms</li>
+<li>Testing the Amazon ECS driver against real-world scenarios</li>
+</ul></li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Use case projects</h2>
+
+<p>There are a number of use cases that have been discussed but not
implemented in a public repository. These would
+demonstrate the power of libcloud.</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>A storage migration utility - Our storage APIs are a great way </li>
+<li>A DNS management library - Configure your DNS providers in a DSL file and
have a command line utility to list records, zones and manage DNS</li>
+<li>A bind export utility - Our DNS driver supports <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/dns/api.html#libcloud.dns.base.DNSDriver.export_zone_to_bind_format";>exporting
a zone to bind format</a>. Some cloud providers, such as Amazon Route53
don't offer this feature publically, so using libcloud would be
+a great use to allow people to export and backup data from Route53 or other
services to a secondary NS slave.</li>
+<li>A REST API for Libcloud - @tonybaloney has already started this using
Flask RESTful supporting GET methods, this needs to extended and developed. The
idea is
+to allow non-Python users to leverage libcloud via a RESTful API. The API will
be dynamically constructed using Pythons introspection capabilities. <a
href="https://github.com/tonybaloney/libcloud.api";>See the project and fork
this to get started</a></li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>OK, I'm ready - what now?</h2>
+
+<p>Depending on what level of experience you are at, you can learn more about
how to get started. You'll be pleased to learn that the libcloud project is
beginner friendly, we accept contributions from all levels as well as abiding
by the ASF code of ethics.</p>
+
+<h3>New to open-source?</h3>
+
+<p>Check out this <a
href="https://www.thinkful.com/learn/github-pull-request-tutorial/";>tutorial on
creating your first PR</a> </p>
+
+<h3>New to Python?</h3>
+
+<p>Check out <a href="http://www.learnpython.org/";>LearnPython.org</a> to cut
your teeth on some interactive tutorials.</p>
+
+<p>Specifically to develop on libcloud you will need some tools:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>A Python text editor like <a href="https://atom.io/";>Atom</a>, <a
href="http://komodoide.com/";>Komodo</a>, <a
href="https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/";>PyCharm</a> or emacs.</li>
+<li>The Python 2.7 and 3.5 CPython interpreters installed</li>
+<li>Tox for running the unit tests (<code>easy_install tox</code>)</li>
+<li>Linting tools for checking PEP8 compliance, Flake8 (<code>easy_install
flake8</code>) and PyLint (<code>easy_install pylint</code>)</li>
+<li>Sphinx for building the docs</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>New to Apache?</h3>
+
+<p>Firstly, checkout <a href="http://www.theapacheway.com/";>The Apache Way</a>
to understand the principles of the Apache community projects.</p>
+
+<p>If you're a committer on an Apache project, it means that you can
commit directly to the project's repository. For instance, with Apache
Libcloud committers are allowed to directly push commits into the git
repository. Non-Committers can
+raise pull-requests on the read-only mirror on <a
href="https://github.com/apache/libcloud";>github.com/apache/libcloud</a>, one
of the committers will then use <code>git am</code> to merge your patch
directly into the ASF git repository on your behalf. You will still
+get contribution recognition in the git logs.</p>
+
+<h3>I'm a pro, come at me</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Read our project style and best-practice guidance on <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/development.html#getting-started-with-contributing-to-libcloud";>the
documentation site</a> for all of the things that are checked during the PR
process.</li>

+ <h1>Help wanted - a summary of community contributions we really need your
help with</h1>
+
+<p>Libcloud has a fantastic community, we value our community contributions
and having a wide and varied experience and skillset.</p>
+
+<p>Recently people have been asking what else they can do to help that
isn't creating another driver, there's still plenty to do, here is a
summary of some contributions
+that would be really valuable and don't nessecarily require advanced
Python experience.</p>
+
+<h2>Skill set - documentation</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Develop a 'writing a driver' from scratch tutorial that covers all
the steps to developing a new DNS, Storage, Compute etc driver.</li>
+<li>Improve the provider feature matrix, it's difficult to navigate and a
more screen friendly format needs to be found <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/supported_providers.html#provider-matrix";>page</a></li>
+<li>Develop a "Libcloud in 30 minutes" tutorial that takes you
through installation, getting started and loading up your cloud and using the
driver.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Web Authoring</h2>
+
+<p>Our website is written using Jekyll, Markdown and HTML. </p>
+
+<p><a href="http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/libcloud/site/trunk/";>Source
Code</a></p>
+
+<p>We would really value</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Additional copy on the homepage explaining what the project does and
potential use cases</li>
+<li>Develop out the community pages</li>
+<li>Extend the Using pages to link to the documentation site</li>
+<li>Integrating video/GIF tutorials on the homepage</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Video tutorials</h2>
+
+<p>Complimenting our documentation with video tutorials (or GIF tutorials) on
basic concepts and how to use the library would be really useful for
beginners.</p>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Advanced Python development</h2>
+
+<h3>Compute driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>The base <code>Node</code> class is missing standard fields to describe
the CPU, Memory and Disk information for the Node. Propose, design and develop
an implementation for this problem.</li>
+<li>Update the Azure driver to support the ARM APIs.</li>
+<li>Solve the <code>create_node</code> problem - (this is a big one). The
driver classes are interchangable with the large and important exception of
<code>create_node</code>. Some drivers use implicitly required
<code>kwargs</code>, some require additional
+named keyword arguments, like the GCE driver requires the project name. This
means any code needs to switch the argument set depending on the driver.
+We need a method(s) in the base driver which is consistent, and can be used
across drivers. This would most likely use an Adapter or Proxy design pattern.
</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Container driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Extend the <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/container/drivers/kubernetes.html";>Kubernetes</a>
driver to implement a <a
href="https://cloud.google.com/container-engine/";>Google Container Engine</a>
driver</li>
+<li>Develop an Azure Container Service driver</li>
+<li>Test and extend the Docker driver</li>
+<li>Test and extend the Kubernetes driver for compatibility with the 1.2
release</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Backup driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Implement a driver using Amazon EBS snapshots</li>
+<li>Implement an Azure Backup driver</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>DNS driver</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Implement an Azure <a
href="https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/dns/";>DNS</a> driver</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Skill set - Testing and experience</h2>
+
+<p>We have 2 major changes that need testing against real life</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><p>The <code>requests</code> implementation of our base HTTP classes, see
my <a
href="http://libcloud.apache.org/blog/2016/04/06/requests-support.html";>previous
post</a> on details. This needs thoroughly testing against</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Compute classes, POST, GET methods</li>
+<li>AWS auth token signing</li>
+<li>Storage drivers using PUT and file streams</li>
+</ul></li>
+<li><p>The container base class promoting to a "stable" state</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Testing the docker driver against different implementations and auth
mechanisms</li>
+<li>Testing the Amazon ECS driver against real-world scenarios</li>
+</ul></li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Use case projects</h2>
+
+<p>There are a number of use cases that have been discussed but not
implemented in a public repository. These would
+demonstrate the power of libcloud.</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>A storage migration utility - Our storage APIs are a great way </li>
+<li>A DNS management library - Configure your DNS providers in a DSL file and
have a command line utility to list records, zones and manage DNS</li>
+<li>A bind export utility - Our DNS driver supports <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/dns/api.html#libcloud.dns.base.DNSDriver.export_zone_to_bind_format";>exporting
a zone to bind format</a>. Some cloud providers, such as Amazon Route53
don't offer this feature publically, so using libcloud would be
+a great use to allow people to export and backup data from Route53 or other
services to a secondary NS slave.</li>
+<li>A REST API for Libcloud - @tonybaloney has already started this using
Flask RESTful supporting GET methods, this needs to extended and developed. The
idea is
+to allow non-Python users to leverage libcloud via a RESTful API. The API will
be dynamically constructed using Pythons introspection capabilities. <a
href="https://github.com/tonybaloney/libcloud.api";>See the project and fork
this to get started</a></li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>OK, I'm ready - what now?</h2>
+
+<p>Depending on what level of experience you are at, you can learn more about
how to get started. You'll be pleased to learn that the libcloud project is
beginner friendly, we accept contributions from all levels as well as abiding
by the ASF code of ethics.</p>
+
+<h3>New to open-source?</h3>
+
+<p>Check out this <a
href="https://www.thinkful.com/learn/github-pull-request-tutorial/";>tutorial on
creating your first PR</a> </p>
+
+<h3>New to Python?</h3>
+
+<p>Check out <a href="http://www.learnpython.org/";>LearnPython.org</a> to cut
your teeth on some interactive tutorials.</p>
+
+<p>Specifically to develop on libcloud you will need some tools:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>A Python text editor like <a href="https://atom.io/";>Atom</a>, <a
href="http://komodoide.com/";>Komodo</a>, <a
href="https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/";>PyCharm</a> or emacs.</li>
+<li>The Python 2.7 and 3.5 CPython interpreters installed</li>
+<li>Tox for running the unit tests (<code>easy_install tox</code>)</li>
+<li>Linting tools for checking PEP8 compliance, Flake8 (<code>easy_install
flake8</code>) and PyLint (<code>easy_install pylint</code>)</li>
+<li>Sphinx for building the docs</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>New to Apache?</h3>
+
+<p>Firstly, checkout <a href="http://www.theapacheway.com/";>The Apache Way</a>
to understand the principles of the Apache community projects.</p>
+
+<p>If you're a committer on an Apache project, it means that you can
commit directly to the project's repository. For instance, with Apache
Libcloud committers are allowed to directly push commits into the git
repository. Non-Committers can
+raise pull-requests on the read-only mirror on <a
href="https://github.com/apache/libcloud";>github.com/apache/libcloud</a>, one
of the committers will then use <code>git am</code> to merge your patch
directly into the ASF git repository on your behalf. You will still
+get contribution recognition in the git logs.</p>
+
+<h3>I'm a pro, come at me</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Read our project style and best-practice guidance on <a
href="http://libcloud.readthedocs.org/en/latest/development.html#getting-started-with-contributing-to-libcloud";>the
documentation site</a> for all of the things that are checked during the PR
process.</li>
