<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for your patience as we finalized the dates and location of the Ops mid-cycle meetup. First, we want to say thank you to all of the organizations who offered to help out or host the event. Due to timing and the size of our growing
event, the best option to accommodate 300 people (if needed) will be:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The cloud ops team at HP helped research and secure the space and will graciously help underwrite the event. If your organization might still be interested in contributing to the costs, it would be greatly appreciated. Like we discussed
on the mailing list, there will not be any booths at the event, but we would of course give a nod to sponsors in the event communications and signage. If your organization might be interested, please respond to this email or feel free to contact me directly
by Friday, July 17th. We are finalizing the budget now and can determine the appropriate sponsorship levels based on initial reg numbers, as well as the number of organizations in addition to HP who would like to contribute.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">More information will be shared soon on the agenda, and per feedback from the mailing list, we are not planning to host or organize an evening event. We also decided to forgo registration costs this time, because it seems like there were
mixed opinions, but it’s certainly something we could revisit in the future. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Stay tuned for discussion on the mailing list regarding the agenda, as well as any additional updates for the event. <o:p></o:p></p>
