  [USER STORIES]
  
  James is a sysadmin at a company and is interested in getting his charms
  into the store for convenience/peer review. He's got some internal stuff
  that he can keep seperate, but he doesn't want to maintain boring
  infrastructure charms on his own.
  
  Kirk is deploying a charm but finds that it's missing a feature or needs
  a bugfix and he thinks he knows how to fix it.
  
  Robert is a developer at a company who works on a database that is
  charmed up, he notices that the charm needs improvement to follow his
  project's recommended best practice, but isn't sure how to claim
  ownership of a charm.
  
  Lars is used to github and is totally confused on how to get charms he's
  interested in.
  
  Cliff submitted a fix to a charm two weeks ago and has no idea how to
  get someone to get his fix in.
  
  [ASSUMPTIONS]
  
  - Mims/Castro want to mirror how OpenStack does reviews and code
  contributions as well as their usage of LP Blueprints.
  
  [RISKS]
  
  - There's only so much simplification that can happen when it comes to submitting code.
  - Poor response time leads people to believe that we don't want to help them.
  - Workflow ties into the store, so we need to be careful on how we simplify this.
  
  [IN SCOPE]
  
  - Refining workflow for submission
  - Measuring contributor metrics and enforcing a fast response time.
  
  [OUT OF SCOPE]
  
  [USER ACCEPTANCE]
  
  [RELEASE NOTE/BLOG]
  
  - We've made it easier than ever to contribute to charms with a new
  submission workflow.

+ [notes from cloudsprint 2013-05]
  
  Low hanging fruit
  Docs! Big issue to getting new contributors
  Instructional videos will be a big help to resolving “How do I get going” for new people
  “Contribute to this charm” on jujucharms.com
  
  Better charm tools to help contributors (charm-helpers, charm-tools,
  charmsupport)
  
  NO LOCAL PROVIDER FOR JUJU-CORE
  Inhibitor for WebOps, charmers, community, and basically everyone
