      Upcoming changes to Design Summit format
      <http://fnords.wordpress.com/2014/03/20/upcoming-changes-to-design-summit-format/>

Since the very beginning of OpenStack we fulfilled our Open Design
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Open#Open_Design> promise by organizing
a developer gathering open to all OpenStack contributors at the
beginning of all our development cycles, called the Design Summit
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Summit>. Those events have proven to be
an essential part of OpenStack success and growth. Lots of things are
changing for the Atlanta “Juno” Summit: staggering conference and Design
Summit, no more unconference but “Other Projects” dedicated track, more
coordination with cross project discussions. Read the details, do it now
<http://fnords.wordpress.com/2014/03/20/upcoming-changes-to-design-summit-format/>.


      OpenStack 2013.1.5 released
      <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2014-March/000209.html>

The OpenStack Stable Maintenance team is happy to announce the release
of the 2013.1.5 stable Grizzly release. A total of 44 bugs have been
fixed across all projects. These updates to Grizzly are intended to be
low risk with no intentional regressions or API changes. The list of
bugs, tarballs and other milestone information for each project can be
found on Launchpad.


      I need some data from the OpenStack user group leaders
      <http://sarob.com/2014/03/i-need-some-data-from-the-openstack-user-group-leaders/>

OpenStack Ambassadors are compiling user group data. To better track how
we’re doing worldwide. Pay attention to messages from your area’s
Ambassador as they may need to get a few details about how your
OpenStack user group has been doing in the past half-year. The data
provided will be used in the first “Regional Activity Report” at the
Juno summit.


      CERN Cloud Architecture – Update
      <http://openstack-in-production.blogspot.com/2014/03/cern-cloud-architecture-update-for.html>

CERN Cloud Architecture has grown, included a third cell and enabled
Ceilometer compute-agent. Because of that CERN needed to perform some
architecture changes to cope with the number of nova-api calls that
ceilometer compute-agent generates. Read the details provided by Belmiro
Moreira
<http://openstack-in-production.blogspot.com/2014/03/cern-cloud-architecture-update-for.html>.
