We'd like your help again in selecting the right name for the development cycle and release coming after "Kilo". Our next summit will happen in Vancouver, BC (Canada) in May. L candidate names were proposed, selected and checked for various issues... leaving 4 candidates on the final public poll. Please take a moment to participate to our poll: <A HREF="https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/openstack-l-naming">https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/openstack-l-naming</A>

When you’ve got thousands of proposed patchsets, comments and test environments flooding in every day, you need the right tools to handle them. OpenStack created these free software tools to handle its burgeoning scale - here’s what they can do for you.

The community has plenty to say: there were over 1,000 proposals for less than 200 talks at the Paris Summit in November 2014. For the <A HREF="https://www.openstack.org/summit/vancouver-2015">upcoming Summit</A> in Vancouver, there are <A HREF="https://www.openstack.org/summit/vancouver-2015/call-for-speakers/#ProposedTracks">17 Summit tracks</A>, from community building and security to hands-on labs. The deadline for <A HREF="https://www.openstack.org/summit/vancouver-2015/call-for-speakers/">proposals</A> is February 9.
