<p>Good discussions! Agree that it is sometimes unclear and hard to
find a suitable track for sessions - interesting sessions for that
matter - but can become less interesting in the wrong track due to
the fact that it isn't 100 % relevant.<br>
</p>
<p>Have a couple of sessions that are very generic around specific
OpenStack projects - is that a per definition private, hybrid or
public cloud? Is it OpenSource community? How would you folks
categorize a session like that?</p>
<p>I will make a choice here, but interesting to hear what the rest
of you thinks!</p>

To answer Gary's question... We actually had a pretty even
distribution of submissions this go round. Obviously Private Cloud
and Public Cloud have a higher number of submissions, but based on
what we've seen, it feels like we're getting closer to a good set
of tracks.<br>
<br>
That said, this is exactly the type of feedback we're looking for.
So please let us know if you feel we could be adding or
subtracting tracks as the process goes on.<br>
