I did check DPDK roadmap and it wasn't clear to me what's available to be implemented. In addition, roadmap lists features but doesn't give description as to what needs to be done. It might be no brainer for original developers but it will definitely help outsiders if some information is provided. Also I was thinking if I can start-off with bug fixing initially to get acquainted with the code and then start off with more things. Please let me know your inputs.
