[openstack-community] Requesting volunteers to staff the OpenStack booth at the Open Compute Project Summit
by kathyc＠openstack.org 17 Dec '12

17 Dec '12

Hi everyone, I am the relatively new OpenStack Foundation industry events planner. I'll post this kind of request for community support for events from time to time. The Open Compute Project has provided OpenStack with a very nice 10' x 10' booth at the OCP Summit January 16-17 2013, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in California. The Foundation staff cannot attend, unfortunately. We're looking for volunteers to staff the booth. The Expo Hall is open both days from 8am - 6pm with peak times over breaks and lunch. Volunteers will have full conference access to attend keynotes, sessions, and evening cocktail party in addition to speaking with potential developers and users in the booth. We will provide everything needed (except travel expenses) including videos for the large monitor, collateral, OpenStack logo'd backdrop and more. Please reply to me directly at [mailto:kathyc@openstack.org] kathyc(a)openstack.org, by end of day Wednesday, December 19 if interested. Thank you!-- Regards, Kathy Cacciatore OpenStack Industry Event Planner 1-512-970-2807 (mobile) Part time: Monday - Thursday, 9am - 2pm US CT kathyc(a)openstack.org

[openstack-community] Cyprus Openstack community: Need help to prepare for a presentation
by S.Charalambous 17 Dec '12

17 Dec '12

Hello everyone, I have been invited from some organizations in Cyprus to go and give a presentation about Openstack. I attended the EMEA Openstack conference in London and I really like the slides that Jonathan Bryce and Jim Curry did. I would love to get their slides if possible. Do you know how can I do this since I don't have their emails. My audience will be people that are interested in technologies. So I will need to introduce Openstack to them. Do you know any other slides or videos I can use to prepare? Or if you have slides that you can share please send them to me. Thank you for you help in advance. Sergios Charalambous

[openstack-community] OpenStack Community Weekly Newsletter (Nov 30 – Dic 14)
by Stefano Maffulli 14 Dec '12

14 Dec '12

Highlights of the weeks What people talk about when they talk about OpenStack Cloud <http://www.mirantis.com/blog/what-people-talk-about-when-they-talk-about-op…> There’s enough going on in the OpenStack <http://www.mirantis.com/openstack-services/> ecosystem that you can pretty much find a comfortable niche drilling down on anything from hypervisor compatibility to driver support to who’s in the foundation. Mirantis’ David M. Fishman takes a step back and highlights recent conversations about OpenStack. *Welcome New Outreach Program for Women Interns <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2012/12/welcome-new-outreach-program-for-wome…>* With a flurry of applications, we had a difficult decision in front of us, deciding who would be our newest mentored contributors through the GNOME Outreach Program for Women <https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen>. All the applicants were enthusiastic and personable, knowledgeable and technical. We’re pleased to announce that the decisions have been made and these three are going to work on OpenStack full-time from January to March. Please welcome Laura, Anita and Victoria to the OpenStack community. *Making sense of SDN with–and without–HW-based networking in OpenStack Cloud <http://www.mirantis.com/blog/making-sense-of-sdn-with-and-without-hw-based-…>* There’s a tremendous amount of talk about the shift in the networking business from hardware-bound networking to Software Defined Network. Mirantis’ Greg Elkinbard gives an overview of SDN in OpenStack world. *OpenStack Board of Directors Talks: Episode 1 with Rob Hirschfeld, Principal Cloud Architect at Dell <http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/b/techcenter/archive/2012/12/06/ope…>* Learn firsthand about OpenStack, its challenges and opportunities, market adoption and Dell’s engagement in the community. Rafael Knuth’s goal is to interview all 24 members of the OpenStack board, and will post these talks sequentially at Dell TechCenter.

[openstack-community] animation of OpenStack logo
by Atwood, Mark 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

Hi! At the OpenStack summit in San Diego, I noticed some presentation Interstitials that had an animated OpenStack logo, that showed the layers of the stack falling from above and forming the logo. Is that animation available, or did some company just hack it together for there own slides? ..m -- Mark Atwood <mark.atwood(a)hp.com> Director - Open Source Evangelism for HP Cloud Services +1-206-473-7118

[openstack-community] OpenStack Community Weekly Newsletter (Nov 16-30)

Highlights of the weeks OpenStack Outreach Program for Women Still Accepting Candidates <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2012/11/openstack-outreach-program-for-women-…> We are constantly moving and growing and very excited to invite newcomers to our community. To this end, the OpenStack Foundation has joined the GNOME Outreach Program for Women. The Women in OpenStack group has already found some mentors for the program and ideas for projects are flowing in. If you know women that may be interested in joining OpenStack please tell them to read our blog post <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2012/11/openstack-outreach-program-for-women-…> with more details. The deadline is approaching (Dec 3) and we still have place for candidates. OpenStack Nova, Glance, Keystone, Cinder, Quantum and Horizon 2012.2.1 released <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2012-November/00005…> The OpenStack Stable Branch Maintainers Team has been busy selectively back-porting bugfixes to the stable/folsom branch according to our "safe source of high-impact fixes" criteria documented on the wiki page StableBranch <http://wiki.openstack.org/StableBranch>. We're happy to announce the 2012.2.1 release, the first in the series of releases to make available the bugfixes from stable/folsom. A total of 139 bugs have been fixed in this release, which is a higher than the usual volume of fixes in a stable release. What to expect from Grizzly-1 milestone <http://fnords.wordpress.com/2012/11/23/what-to-expect-from-grizzly-1-milest…> The first milestone of the OpenStack Grizzly development cycle is just out <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2012-November/00005…>. What should you expect from it? What significant new features were added? With more than 399 bugfixes landing in this milestone, Grizzly-1 contains already lots of new features. Thierry's blog post adds details for what changed in each component. Developing OpenStack Dashboard using Fedora <http://www.matthias-runge.de/2012/11/20/developing-openstack-dashboard-usin…> Many developers recommend using devstack <http://devstack.org/> to work on OpenStack. Matthias Runge <http://www.matthias-runge.de/> doesn't recommend that for Dashboard (Dan Berrange <http://berrange.com/> has an article providing more details <http://berrange.com/posts/2012/11/20/what-devstack-does-to-your-host-when-s…>). Good news is, at least for OpenStack's dashboard, devstack is not required in any case, it just runs on plain Fedora. Matthias swears that the instructions provided for Fedora's test day <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2012-09-18_OpenStack> worked great, no rocket science and no engineering master required. What DevStack does to your host when setting up OpenStack on Fedora 17 <http://berrange.com/posts/2012/11/20/what-devstack-does-to-your-host-when-s…> DevStack is one of those huge, massive scripts that requires super user access to your machine. Understanding what it does to your setup is pretty complex. Daniel P. Berrangé <http://berrange.com/> did most of the work for us investigating just what DevStack does to a Fedora 17 host when it is run. Fascinating read. The Future of Incubation and Core <http://blogs.gnome.org/markmc/2012/11/17/the-future-of-incubation-and-core/> Mark McLoughlin summarizes quite well the ongoing discussion to define the future of Incubation nd Core. The OpenStack Technical Committee <http://www.openstack.org/foundation/technical-committee/> and the OpenStack Foundation Board of Directors <http://www.openstack.org/foundation/board-of-directors/> have pretty separate sets of responsibilities and can get on with their work independently. One exception to that is the inclusion of new projects in OpenStack. In the coming weeks, members of the two bodies will decide how to clarify confusion around the term "core project" and what exactly happens projects who graduate through OpenStack's Incubation process. A thread on the openstack-dev mailing list <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2012-November/thread.htm…> is ongoing and is a great example of how a mailing list discussion can actually help to drive a rough consensus while still giving everyone an opportunity to express their views.// Driving a 100 Gigabit Network with OpenStack <http://buriedlede.blogspot.com/2012/11/driving-100-gigabit-network-with.html> Argonne National Laboratory is interested in building IaaS cloud systems that perform similarly to traditional HPC cluster-style systems for one of their projects. Narayan Desai <https://plus.google.com/111442327943164013992> reports on the work to validate the ability of an Openstack system to drive large quantities of network bandwidth, memory to memory. *Go to Australia in January for an OpenStack day at LCA2013 <http://bit.ly/Waue30>* Being held in January in Canberra, Australia, linux.conf.au is one of the foremost open source conferences in the world, and is considered the most prestigious in the southern hemisphere. Linux.conf.au's first ever OpenStack miniconf day is being held Jan 29, and we expect over 200 people will be attending the miniconf alone, with hundreds more attending the week long conference.
