What we really need to focus on is to get people _wanting_ to join us. There is next to nothing easy in OpenStack with all it's complexity and that's perfectly fine. Easy is not fun, we all want to challenge ourselves. And we have amazing community to support those who wants to join and make the difference. That is the group we need to grow and when we run out of scalability of helping the people who really wants to make the effort, then we should focus streamlining that process.I'm eager to say, we're wasting our time trying to make it super welcoming and easy just to join for everyone as long as we do not have the queue of people who really wants to make a difference. Think about it, feel free to tell that I'm totally wrong and just being ass by saying this, and when you do, please explain why you think so.
I don't think you're totally wrong and I also think we might be having a problem attracting people to the community. Nevertheless, I don't think attracting people to the community is entirely related to being inclusive. If you do a massive marketing campain to attract people and your community is not welcoming (or simply ready to deal with that) then you'll end up pushing them away, hence my question ;) As you correctly pointed out, our community is amaizing but not perfect. We do have some serious issues to deal with to be more inclusive. So, I think you're onto something and your answer is valid, perhaps better in a different context. Flavio -- @flaper87 Flavio Percoco
