As mentioned several times in the Manila Community Meeting, we have posted an etherpad to brainstorm and gauge interest in topics for the Forum at the upcoming OpenInfra Summit in Shanghai. The point of the Forum sesssions is to get feedback from operators and users on things that need fixing, improvements and enhancements, and more generally about the strategic direction for Manila. So please take a look and update this etherpad with topic ideas and indicate your interest in topics already present if you have an interest in Manila. It doesn't matter whether you contribute to the project or not, or whether you will yourself be attending the Forum: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/manila-shanghai-forum-brainstorming We will review this etherpad in our community meeting at 1500 UTC on 19 September in #openstack-meeting-alt on Freenode, one day before the Forum proposal deadline. Please feel free to join that meeting to discuss, and in any case please add to the brainstorming deadline before then. Cheers, -- Tom Barron
