== Project Goal ==
 
* For Grizzly, the new objective is '''The project aims to become the infrastructure to collect measurements within OpenStack so that no two agents would need to be written to collect the same data. It's primary targets are monitoring and metering, but the framework should be easily expandable to collect for other needs. To that effect, Ceilometer should be able to share collected data with a variety of consumers'''.
 
* In the 0.1 (folsom) release its goal was just to deliver a unique point of contact for billing  systems to aquire all  meters they need to establish customer billing,  across all current and  future [[OpenStack]] core components.

== Contributing to Ceilometer ==
 
The developer documentation is starting to take shape within the source and is also published at http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ceilometer/ in a more friendly format.
 
 
 
The project team hangs out on Freenode in the #openstack-metering channel, feel free to drop by and stay as long as you want to discuss your future implementation. We use the [[OpenStack]] General Mailing List for our email discussions tagging the the subject with [metering].
 
 
 
The project team officially meets once a week, see [[Meetings/MeteringAgenda|Ceilometer's Meeting Agenda]]
 
 
 
=== Possible tasks ===
 
==== Update documentation ====
 
Trying following the documentation to set-up and configuring Ceilometer to see if the documention is not wrong or out-dated would be a good first step.
 
Once everything's working, the next step would be to read the rest of the documentation to see if everything that's written is still true. Anything that's not clear or might be missing should be fixed and updated.
 
 
 
To update the documentation, the best way is to send a patch. But notifying the team via the [[MailingLists#Development_List|development mailing list]] or via IRC is fine too!
 
 
 
==== Close old fixed bugs ====
 
Old bugs are nasty. Even when they are long dead, they clog bug views and render the lists unusable. Just look at old bugs and check if they still apply! If they don't, close them as ''[[FixReleased]]'' (if you can pinpoint when they were fixed) or ''Invalid'' (if you can't).
 
 
 
==== Fix bugs ====
 
The best thing you can do is to kill a living bug. Just look at the list of ''Confirmed'' or ''Triaged'' and pick your target. Submit a change that fixes it. Ask for review help on the channel.
 
 
 
==== Triage incoming bugs ====
 
It's sometimes hard to distinguish fresh bugs from false alarms. You can help by using your expertise or reproduction skills on ''New'' bugs. If you can confirm the issue, set the bug to ''Confirmed''. If you can fix it, read the previous entry. If you need more info from the reporter, set it to ''Incomplete''. And if it happens to not really be valid, set it to ''Invalid''!
 
 
 
You can read more information about [[BugTriage|how to do bug triaging for OpenStack]].
