My primary goal is to grow and build the Ceph developer community in China. ?As more organizations rely on
Ceph for their storage infrastructure, the pool of serious Ceph users grows, and every user presents a new
opportunity to become involved in Ceph development. ?We face a number of challenges that make it hard for
Chinese developers to participate in the upstream Ceph development community, including language, reliable
and unrestricted internet access to common collaboration tools (including chat, video conferencing, and
video archives), and time zones. ?However, I think these challenges can be overcome by building a community
nexus that is centered in China, using what languages and tools are most convenient and natural, and by
facilitating communication and collaboration with the broader community through experienced developers like
Xie Xingguo. ?Books like this one that help new developers become familiar with Ceph are a critical part in
this effort.
