Are you or your company new to participating in an open source project?
If so, there are two things you should do before proceeding:

This 30 minute presentation by Chris Donley provides key insights to the cultural norms and expectations that often differ radically from what you may be accustomed to in a traditional company development model

- For development managers the guide provides a general overview of the various group structures, what each does on a daily basis and the key links you need to help your team be effective.
- For company developers you will get practical suggestions for how to engage, get connected and how to get help when you need it.

Where Do I Start? Get an LFID
Linux Foundation Identity (LFID)
(Already have an LFID from a different project? You are good to go, just use the one you have to login to the ONAP wiki or other tools)
Most of the information on this wiki is viewable as an anonymous user, however an LFID is needed to access some content areas and it is ultimately required if you will be contributing to the project in any way.
Not only is an LFID is you passport to ONAP, it is also used by LFN Communities such as ODL, FD.io, OPNFV and dozens of other Projects from all areas of the Linux Foundation.
To obtain an LFID go to the Linux Foundation Portal, select the option to create a new account, and complete the form. Note that an LFID must be Linux user name compliant (no space and no underscore)
Please do this first, even if you only plan to passively browse content as it will save you (and potentially our IT team) headaches in the future.
