Open Stack

I understand this meet to be a follow on to the operators summit. I like this and I want to support the effort. I understand the goals asked to be worked on:
- enterprise IT requirements vs. today's OpenStack capabilities
- market perceptions
- define a set of recommendations to ensure OpenStack meets the technical requirements of Enterprise IT to deploy Private Clouds
