started contributing with EasyFix!</h2>
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px;">Your first
contribution to any open source project can be intimidating
and confusing. We want to help you get started, and welcome
you to the RDO community.</p>
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 20px 0px 0px;">To
that end, we've started the EasyFix initiative. We're
collecting "easy" tickets in the<span> </span><a

ticket tracker. Each ticket describes a task that you can do
to get started contributing to RDO. It should also include
the name and email address of someone who is willing to help
you if you get stuck.</p>
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 20px 0px 0px;">Tickets
are in a variety of areas, from packaging, to CI jobs, to
documentation, to helping promote events. Whatever your
skills are, we need you on the project. So have a look, and
see where you can plug in to the community.</p>

<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px;">First, we
encourage you to attend your local OpenStack meetup. There's
hundreds of them, all over the world, every day. We post a
list of upcoming meetups to the RDO mailing list each
Monday, so that you can mark your calendar. Or you can
search<span> </span><a href="https://www.meetup.com/"

events near you.</p>
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 20px 0px 0px;">If
you're going to be speaking at an OpenStack meetup group,
and you'd like to have some RDO swag to take along with you,
please contact me - <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:rbowen@redhat.com">rbowen@redhat.com</a> - or Rain -
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:rain@redhat.com">rain@redhat.com</a> - with your request, at least two weeks
ahead of time.</p>
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 20px 0px 0px;">And
if you're a meetup organizer who is looking for speakers, we
can sometimes help you with that, too.</p>

something you'd like to see happen in RDO - a package that
is missing, a tool that you'd like to see included, or a
change in how things are governed - this is the best time
and place to help make that happen.</p>
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 20px 0px 0px;">This
meeting is for everyone - developers and users of RDO, but
also anybody that has any interest in where the project is
going. So please do come, and speak up!</p>
