Open Stack

Brilliant to hear Matjaz!

I've added your name to the proposed OpenStack in Academia Working Group at
the below etherpad, if you could please have a look over it and add your
comments directly:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/academia-wg

Stig (Cc'd) and myself have been trying to announce far and wide to all
interested academic institutions, please do help us spread the word :D

I'm also very interested to hear about what training you have started in
on, it would be great to compare as we have created a training for
researchers (aka PhDs and Postgraduates) on how to use our OpenStack as
their research operating system of choice:

Naturally, the first app guide is also something we are keen to promote...

So much to do!
