David's suggestion feels right to me too. There are a lot of open-source cloud projects working away in their own silos. I think there would be huge value in getting those communities together. You won't achieve that with a Fedora/RHEL/Red Hat centric event. This would be an event with a similar intent to the Desktop Summit - bring complementary and competing communities together so they can both meet peers within their own community and have exposure to other communities. Cheers, Mark. _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud
