have agreed it’s time to wrap up our efforts. Last year we<br>
experienced great participation from several different organizations<br>
and were able to coordinate the Cloud Benchmark, First App guides,<br>
along with the Guadalajara Hackathon. In Barcelona we came up with<br>
some priority efforts[1] to pursue before the next summit in Boston<br>
and we have delivered improvements in <a href="http://developer.openstack.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">developer.openstack.org</a>.<br>
<br>
This year however we have been talking about taking a more pragmatic<br>
approach around finding application developers building things on top<br>
of OpenStack clouds. The hope is that if we work more closely with<br>
the various platforms as a service that run beautifully on top of<br>
OpenStack clouds, we can reach a wider audience and focus on enabling<br>
them (and their respective PaaS’s).<br>
<br>
We feel this mission represents a significant departure from where<br>
this began (as the AppDev Ecosystem WG). We think it makes sense to<br>
retire this working group and suggest a new one that can focus closely<br>
on cooperating with the PaaS options and their already existing<br>
ecosystem of application developers.<br>
