The OpenStack community has worked hard since the announcement of
intention to establish an OpenStack Foundation in October 2011. We've
come to the point where Individual Members can join and begin making
important contributions like nominating board members:

      TryStack.org Adds New ARM Technology-Powered Zone
      <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2012/07/trystack-org-adds-new-arm-technology-powered-zone/>

A monumental day in ARM server history! TryStack.org
<http://www.trystack.org/>, the hosted cloud sandbox for OpenStack, now
has an ARM-based OpenStack zone in addition to the x86 zone. (This is,
to our knowledge, the first OpenStack cluster made publicly available on
an ARM-based system!)
