Hi Adam,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I'm more of a web development type than security. I have some maths
background so perhaps something with data analysis.

To date I have done mostly Java, some JavaScript, Html, and MySQL. I
am interested in learning Python. I co-developed a web app to check
and commit time-sheets to a database during my work experience this
summer; I did the database and the checking of the sheets. I, have
also, created an Android app to monitor the fuel consumption in
multiple vehicles, using the Android SQLite Database for storage.

I am looking to get someone to work on a Javascript based web client to
replace Horizon.
Can I just say that I think using new people looking to have work
experience with OpenStack to further pet projects, without telling them
it is a pet project and not considered a project which others may
consider OpenStack to be not the best approach for encouraging new people.
Good points:

Not knocking your project, Adam, since I know nothing about it, and this
isn't the first time I have seen this happen. But I do believe that
folks asking to help out with something are looking to gain transferable
skills so that they have something to offer a potential employeer who is
looking for work experience with OpenStack. That would be what I would
be looking for anyway.
No offense taken. I think you are looking out for the interest of the poster and people wityh similar interests.

I can verify how hard to cut off a chunk for a new developer: I had an intern I was working with this summer. Most of the time was spent on learning the development process. It would not be appropriate for someone in Patricia's position to try and come in and get a bug fix through. That limits the number of projects available.


Typically, and internship or a senior project like this is the correct place for a proof of concept or side project. The project can be done with a focus more on functionality and less on stability.


We should come up with a published list of "intern and senior projects proposals"

New people have no idea what are considered transferable skills within
OpenStack unless we tell them.

Thanks,
Anita.

  There has been some work along these lines already.

Beyond that, most of the projects I have are Python based Keystone
features.  You can see the kinds of things I am considering here:

     Patricia,

     I am Keystone core developer.  I have several ideas.   It really
     depends on your skills and interests.

     Are you a security person?

     If not,  are you a web development type person?
