Welcome everyone! Go through the root wiki page: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Index As a relatively new developer myself, I try to explore/add/edit/update wiki as I learn from the old beards :) So, please add/update content on the ASF wiki as you learn. The first week I tried to learn CS as a user and read install, admin guides and go through an old induction guide: http://intranet.lab.vmops.com/engineering/101/developing-the-cloudstack/product-induction-guide I'm guessing perhaps you'll all have access to bunch of servers anyway, but try DevCloud too: http://wiki.cloudstack.org/display/COMM/DevCloud Setup your development environment, join mailing lists, get help and also help out, and contribute patches through review board or on developer ML: http://wiki.cloudstack.org/display/gen/Review+Board Regards, Rohit > > Thanks! > > -chip
