Team, We are at about a month away from the Cinder Mid-Cycle in Raleigh.  I have started requesting drinks/snacks and have rooms reserved.  I soon will need a firm number of people attending so that I can finalize the various requests. If you are planning to physically attend and have not yet added your name to our planning etherpad [1] please do so ASAP. I have reserved a room at the Hyatt House Raleigh Durham Airport (10962 Chapel Hill Road, Morrisville, NC, 27560, USA ) <http://maps.google.com/?q=loc:35.85501,-78.8407> if people want to stay at the same hotel as myself.  It is close to the Lenovo site which will make it easier to travel if we have unexpected snowy weather there.  We can also carpool to reduce the problem of finding parking. I am arriving the afternoon of 2/4/19 and leaving the morning of 2/9/19. Also a reminder to please add topics to the mid-cycle planning etherpad regardless of whether you are able to attend or not. Look forward to seeing you in Raleigh next month! Jay (jungleboyj) [1] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/cinder-stein-mid-cycle-planning
