First, check out [1]. Also please subscribe to openstack-stable-maint@ mailing list [2]. You can start helping the team by applying the rules from [1] to existing backport reviews. Once team members see your work for a while, you will be able to join the team and get +2 vote for stable branches. Welcome!
