We're building a public OpenStack implementation in Nairobi and over time, the rest of the continent. Is anybody on the list interested in talking about OpenStack in the African context or in starting a virtual meetup about it? I'd like to get more feedback about it and meet more people who are interested in the logistics of launching a cloud platform here. I'm also excited to get people not on the continent in the group if they have an interest. We will have an OpenSack User Group Meetup in Poland early in June, and we will have accompanying Google Hangout & IRC Chat sessions with OpenStackers from the US, Switzerland and India during our meetup. With only 1 hr time difference between Poland and Kenya, we would love to invite your local community to join our Hangouts & Chats (we will host our meetup at 6.00 pm - 10 pm EAT and we will provide details on our meetup shortly). Based on feedback, I'll try to set up some sort of Hangout or something along those lines. Just shoot me a line. Sure. We will have meetups once a month starting in June (with Google Hangouts & IRC Chats), and we will happily join forces with OpenStackers in your region. We are targeting the entire Central & Eastern Europe region with our community activities and we will be excited to engage with you, as we believe there is potentially a huge value in a dialogue across multiple emerging geographies.
