<p>Hi Malini,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>I am interested in OVa support for applications. Specifically Ova to Heat as this is whay we usually do in Murano project.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>When is free format session for Glance? Should we add this to session etherpad?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>Thanks,<br>
Gosha<u></u><u></u></p>
