<div>I like the idea of an "OpenStack Users" section a lot. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In the near future, I can see such a section largely consisting of new deployments. But over time the number of new deployments will flatten whereas the applications built by developers on top of OpenStack will continue sky rocket. In the intermediate
future, the section would transition to being more about developers.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For example, now that one of the NeCTAR regions has been around for a while, Tom had some great stories about the applications that have been developed on it. It would be awesome to get some exposure for them. I'll bet you would be able to find a lot of
developers willing to blog about it too.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Let's keep an eye towards the section including both deployments (operators) and applications (developers).</div>

<div>Cheers,</div>

Reflecting how we can give more credit to those people who are deploying OpenStack, I was wondering if it would be possible to add a section to the community weekly newsletter which would list the deployments entered in the user survey where the user has stated
that this is public information.<o:p></o:p></div>

Thus, we would be calling out new deployments to the same level we call out a new development contributor.<o:p></o:p></div>
