Hi, After a lot of work, we launched this week the OpenStack community site for the Netherlands, www.openstack.nl<http://www.openstack.nl>. At the same time we also managed to organise two OpenStack Bootcamps at HQ of Cisco. They are sponsoring this one day bootcamp with hardware and room facilities, Fairbanks is the host and knowledge partner for this event. People that are interested can join the bootcamp at the meetup group www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Netherlands. We also setup a Linkedin group, OpenStack Netherlands<http://www.linkedin.com/groups?home=&gid=4179161&trk=anet_ug_hm>, for the community, having already more then 1100 members. Feel free to have a look and let us know what you think. Kind regards Eric Kessels | CTO, Fairbanks NV Tel: +31 (033)-450 85 85 | Mob: +31 (0) 620594135 | Fax: +31 (033)-450 85 80 Website(s): www.fairbanks.nl<http://www.fairbanks.nl/> | www.openstack.nl<http://www.openstack.nl/> Volg ons: Twitter<https://twitter.com/#!/FairbanksCloud> | Facebook<http://www.facebook.com/FairbanksCloud> | Linkedin<http://www.linkedin.com/company/fairbanks>

OpenStack 2014: Powered by Users <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2014/01/openstack-2014-powered-by-users/> If momentum is any indication, 2014 is poised to be a defining year for OpenStack. All of our vital statistics, from community growth to code commits and tracked deployments, doubled in 2013, and all signs point to continued growth. As we start a new year, we in the OpenStack Foundation are putting our resources behind elevating the voice of OpenStack users and tightening the feedback loop between users and developers to influence decisions such as the scope of the project, new feature priorities, interoperability requirements and operational best practices. New Foundation Gold Members & Sponsors <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2014/01/new-foundation-gold-members-sponsors/> The OpenStack Foundation is thrilled to have new additions to our ecosystem. Three new Gold Members and 18 Corporate Sponsors have recently joined the incredible list of companies who are supporting the Foundation and driving innovation on the platform. *Aptira <http://www.aptira.com/>*, *Huawei* <http://www.huawei.com/> and *Hitachi* <http://www.hitachi.com/> won the OpenStack Board’s approval at the November board meeting and joined the Foundation as Gold members, which requires a strong, strategic commitment to the technology and community. We’ve also seen amazing support in Corporate Sponsorship and we want to share the impressive list of recent additions. OpenStack Commitment to Interoperability <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2014/01/openstack-commitment-to-interoperabil…> Now that OpenStack has tons of users, we need to make sure all (downstream) products labeled “OpenStack” have a certain set of*core capabilities*, and we need to verify those with *automated tests* just like we do upstream. End-users should be our focus, and ensuring they get what they want and expect out of the platform once it’s running as a service is paramount. The goal is to define the first set of tests in time for the May 2014 Summit in Atlanta. If this matters to you, get involved!

by Al Kari (DetaCloud) 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

Our OpenStack Northwest User Group http://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Northwest is getting very popular very quickly. About 60 stackers attended last meetup in Portland where presenters from DetaCloud, DreamHost, SwiftStack and EMC focused on OpenStack storage. Next meetup is scheduled for Feb 5 and the focus this time is on networking. We are looking for speakers who can discuss SDN, Neutron, OVS, ML2, OpenFlow, Nicira, etc. Please find me on Twitter @alkari if you are developing or implementing any of these technologies and like to present them to our user group, hopefully you are in Portland on that date (or if you'd like to visit Portland - the snow is awesome on Mt. Hood if you're into that). Join us if you're in town Feb 5th.
