OpenStack Design Summit and Conference
Dates/Location
Hyatt Regency Hotel, 5 Embarcadero Center, San Francisco, CA. OpenStack Summit: April 16-18, 2012 OpenStac Conference: April 19-20, 2012
Event Description
The OpenStack Design Summit and Conference is an week-long event held twice-yearly (at the beginning of each release cycle) and is a combination of two events:
- Design Summit - invite-only for developers/contributors to the OpenStack project; this portion will be April 16-18. During these days, contributors map out their plans for the next release.
- Conference - anyone can attend, geared towards users/developers/IT types, typical planned-session conference.
Given that OpenStack has been a feature in both Fedora 16 and 17, and there are a number of folks working to ensure that Fedora is a working platform for OpenStack, it is a logical place for us to have a small presence to raise awareness about the project being in Fedora.
