2. Glance Contributors
======================
`Glance`_ is a service to manage images for OpenStack clouds. It's one of the
early projects in OpenStack and it's deployed in almost every OpenStack cloud.
Without Glance, Nova can't boot instances.
Glance is struggling to find new contributors that would be willing to provide
reviews, to work on bugs or to work on new features. This struggle started as a
result of the latest lay-offs that happened at the end of 2016 and beginning of
2017.
Glance is a great project to ramp up on OpenStack and it's a great project for
developers regardless of their experience. Glance has welcomed interns, junior
developers, and more senior developers. In every case, it's a great way to grow
and contribute to OpenStack.
Glance is a critical project in OpenStack. Contributions to the future of the
image registry are essential to the stability of OpenStack. More importantly,
Glance is not "done". There's significant technical debt that needs to be taken
care off and several features that can be implemented.

email thread on the ML using the tag `[glance]`.
