From lauren at openstack.org Fri Jan 12 20:59:04 2018 From: lauren at openstack.org (Lauren Sell) Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2018 14:59:04 -0600 Subject: [openstack-community] =?utf-8?q?Vancouver_Summit_CFP_is_open_-_wh?= =?utf-8?q?at=E2=80=99s_new?= Message-ID: <4572415A-B17D-44A2-967D-61376515BD24@openstack.org> Hi everyone, Today, we opened the Call for Presentations for the Vancouver Summit , which will take place May 21-24. The deadline to submit your proposal is February 8th. What’s New? We’re focused on open infrastructure integration. The Summit has evolved over the years to cover more than just OpenStack, but we’re making an even bigger effort to attract speakers across the open infrastructure ecosystem. In addition to OpenStack-related sessions, we’ll be featuring the newest project at the Foundation -- Kata Containers -- as well as recruiting many others from projects like Ansible, Ceph, Kubernetes, ONAP and many more. We’ve also organized Tracks around specific problem domains. We encourage you to submit proposals covering OpenStack and the “open infrastructure” tools you’re using, as well as the integration work needed to address these problem domains. We also encourage you to invite peers from other open source communities to come speak and collaborate. The Tracks are: CI/CD Container Infrastructure Edge Computing HPC / GPU / AI Open Source Community Private & Hybrid Cloud Public Cloud Telecom & NFV Where previously we had Track Chairs, we now have Programming Committees for each Track, made up of both Members and a Chair (or co-chairs). We’re also recruiting members and chairs from many different open source communities working in open infrastructure, in addition to the many familiar faces in the OpenStack community who will lead the effort. If you’re interested in nominating yourself or someone else to be a member of the Summit Programming Committee for a specific Track, please fill out the nomination form . Nominations will close on January 26, 2018. Again, the deadline to submit proposals is February 8, 2018. Please note topic submissions for the OpenStack Forum (planning/working sessions with OpenStack devs and operators) will open at a later date. We can’t wait to see you in Vancouver! We’re working hard to make it the best Summit yet, and look forward to bringing together different open infrastructure communities to solve these hard problems together! Want to provide feedback on this process? Please focus discussion on the openstack-community mailing list, or contact me or the OpenStack Foundation Summit Team directly at summit at openstack.org.

Starting Thursday, February 1 at 11:00am Central Time (17:00 UTC), the sponsorship contract for the OpenStack Summit in Berlin, November 13-15 , will be live. Check out the sponsorship prospectus here . Germany is a very strong market for OpenStack and we’re very excited to bring the Summit to Berlin later this year! In the November 2017 OpenStack User Survey report, Germany was was third in terms of where survey respondents were located, and at our last Summit more than 65% of attendees indicated they were CEO/CIOs, IT Managers, Cloud Architects or OpenStack users. What’s new? The Summit has evolved over the years to cover more than just OpenStack, and we’re making an even larger effort to attract speakers and attendees across the open infrastructure ecosystem. In addition to OpenStack-related sessions, we feature the newest project at the Foundation, Kata Containers, as well as many others like Ansible, Ceph, Kubernetes, ONAP and more. Featured topics include: CI / CD Container Infrastructure Edge Computing HPC / GPU / AI Open Source Community Private & Hybrid Cloud Public Cloud Telecom & NFV In addition, Vancouver Summit and Dublin Project Teams Gathering sponsorship sales are live. Deadline for Project Teams Gathering sponsorships is February 8 and only a limited number of sponsorships are still available. Please let me know if you have any questions!
