<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">After talking with many of you, we’re moving forward to form a new team within the Enterprise WG, called the "ISV Interop Team." This team takes the work underway today in the Marketing and Business
team around Top 5 ISVs, combined with the Monitoring Team to form a single working group. Our group will work with the most enterprise-requested ISVs, in high priority enterprise work load categories, for the purpose of creating interoperable solutions, documentation
and how-to guides, customer PoCs and reference architectures. Our belief is, that having a strong ISV ecosystem will accelerate deployments of OpenStack by Enterprise IT managers.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
