Okay, great! So, the best place for you to start is to checkout out the
git repository for Debian packaging of python-openstackclient. The clone
path is provided at the bottom of the page:

http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/deb-python-openstackclient

Once you've checked it out, switch to the branch named "debian/newton",
and then take a look at the contents of the top-level directory named
"debian/" to start getting familiar with the types of files involved in
Debian packaging.

If you aren't familiar with Debian packaging in general, you might want
to take a quick skim through "Getting started The Right Way":

https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/start.en.html

And, if you aren't familiar with contributing to OpenStack repositories,
then take a quick skim through:

https://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html

That's enough to start. Feel free to ask any questions, and ping when
you're ready for the next level of information. There are more advanced
resources as you get further in, but I don't want to overwhelm with too
much just at the beginning. :)
