Developers

1. To try OpenStack Compute on Ubuntu, use the Nova script.
2. To contribute, sign a Contributor License Agreement.
3. To learn about our coding processes, first learn about Bazaar (bzr) and Launchpad. We've got a page that walks through [[[LifeWithBzrAndLaunchpad|| OpenStack] tasks with bzr and Launchpad]].
4. Set up a Launchpad account at https://launchpad.net/+login.
5. Code and contribute!
