OpenStack Community Weekly Newsletter (Sep 12 – 19)
The Kilo Design Summit in Paris http://ttx.re/kilo-design-summit.html
In less than two months the OpenStack development community will gather in Paris to discuss the details of the Kilo development cycle. It starts after the keynotes on the Tuesday of the summit week, and ends at the end of the day on the Friday. We decided a number of changes in the Design Summit organization in order to make it an even more productive time for all of us.
