Difficulty	Select a difficulty level and delete the others (e.g. code development would be considered less challenging than research-focused)

Description

The OpenDaylight Project no longer uses the MediaWiki platform for it's Developer wiki. However, there is still a large amount of content that lives on the archived page that is still relevant to the community. Interns would be expected to collaborate with the various projects within the OpenDaylight community to determine what content needs to be migrated to the official documentation at docs.opendaylight.org or our developer wiki at wiki.opendaylight.org.
