Apache CloudStack Wiki: Info on developing and contributing to Apache CloudStack

This is the home of the Apache Cloudstack (incubating) space. Feel free to edit this page. If you see something wrong, edit it. If you have new information, please add it. Or to put it another way: edit boldly. It's a wiki - any changes can be reverted if necessary.

Mailing Lists

We do most of our discussion and work on the Apache CloudStack mailing lists. Specifically, developer discussions happen on the cloudstack-dev mailing list. If you're looking for user support, the cloudstack-users list is the best place to go. (You may be tempted to send mails to both lists looking for help. Avoid that temptation. It's much better etiquette to direct emails to one list only, and to use the appropriate lists.)

IRC

We maintain several community IRC channels for real-time discussion and support, but please note that if it didn't happen on the mailing list, it didn't happen. Decisions are made on the mailing list (cloudstack-dev). But if you're looking for real-time answers to development or user questions, IRC is a great way to find help. All channels are on Freenode.
