Contributing to oVirt
Will Zhou asked[1] how to contribute to the oVirt project. Alan Pevec pointed[2] out the oVirt contribution page[3] and Richard Jone's page[4] on contributing to open source projects, and described the process as "basically, follow http://ovirt.org/build-instructions.html and checkout 'next' branch from git repositories and send patches to the ovirt-devel list.
Create your local git branch and rebase it to 'next' before sending patches with git-send-email.
