Hi,

    Matthias and I talked this morning about this topic, and we came to
realize
that there's room for/would be beneficial to have a common place for:

a) Documentation about second day operator tools which can be
    useful with OpenStack, links to repositories or availability for every
distribution.

b) Deployment documentation/config snippets/deployment scripts for those
tools
    in integration with OpenStack.

c)  Operator tools and bits which are developed or maintained on OpenStack
repos,
    specially the OpenStack related bits of those tools (plugins, etc),

d) Home the organisation of ops-related rooms during OpenStack events,
general
     ones related to OpenStack, and also the distro-specific ones for the
distros interested
     in participation.


Does this scope for the SIG make sense to everyone willing to participate?


Best regards,
Miguel Ángel.
