Open Stack

Hi Victoria,

Thanks for arranging this. I too have added myself as a Mentor.

Should we expect a outreachy round as well, besides GSoC and do students
apply to both? Also, are companies being encouraged to apply as
interested organizations individually or is this drive under single
large Openstack umbrella?
