contribute providers

[隋震 <zh...@qq.com>]

Hi.

  I would like to contribute new providers for Aliyun to jclouds and push the code to jclouds.  The project address on github is https://github.com/aliyun-beta/aliyun-jclouds.
  My github ID is anyways.
  What should I do then.



Regards

Hi!

Basically you can open a pull request on GitHub to add the providers.
Check out our How To Contribute guide at:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/JCLOUDS/How+to+Contribute

I've had a look at the repository, and there are implementation of the
three main jclouds interfaces. that's great! However, They are using
an existing java SDK to talk to the cloud provider, and that is
something we try to avoid in jclouds. jclouds has its own way to
implement API clients, and each provider has and uses its own
jclouds-specific API client instead of relying on third party
libraries. This is something that needs to be changed in order to get
it merged into the jclouds repo.

You can read more about the reasoning behind this here:

I'll be happy to help and provide guidance if you need!

I.
