This is where you'll learn how to hack OpenStack itself. You'll start by firing up your own OpenStack development environment, go on to modify OpenStack itself, and end the session learning how to contribute your modification back to the project. Sounds like a lot? That's because it is!
Part I. Setup: You'll get a set of ready-to-use VirtualBox appliances as well as instructions on how to set them up on your machine. At the end of this initial part of the session you should have everything you need to start hacking!
Part II. Hacking: During this section you'll see how to set up an environment for comfortable OpenStack hacking, modify a small part of OpenStack, and finally run and test the modification.
Part III. Contribution: Armed with your patch, during this section you'll step through the process of submitting it to the OpenStack community for review.
