Welcome aboard! Monty's already laid some of the groundwork, but really most of the effort is just getting familiar with what we already have and how to avoid duplicating work. As has been pointed out we're spread pretty thin, but not so thin that we can't answer questions posed by someone who is driven and relatively self-sufficient reading documentation and looking at production examples. Most of the solutions implemented in our infrastructure come from interested members of the community at large, and we're proud of our ability to enable that sort of inclusive participation. I won't pretend it isn't complex and don't expect members of the Infra team to have sufficient bandwidth for hand-holding and spoon-feeding, but we do our best to help guide contributors toward implementing solutions that benefit the community at large. Even if Go isn't a TC-sanctioned language for official OpenStack deliverables, having the ability to support it (or Haskel, or Ada, or...) in our community infrastructure eases experimentation and promotes language-specific innovation for unofficial repositories within our ecosystem. -- Jeremy Stanley
