      Wrapping up the OpenStack Travel Support Program – Icehouse
      <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/12/wrapping-up-the-openstack-travel-support-program-icehouse/>


The OpenStack Foundation brought 18 people to Hong Kong thanks to the
grants offered by the first edition of the Travel Support Program,
sponsored by Intel. The Travel Support Program is based on the promise
of Open Design <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Open> and its aim is to
facilitate participation of key contributors to the OpenStack Design
Summit. The program aims at covering costs for travel and accommodation
for key contributors to the OpenStack project to join the community at
the Summits.


      Adopt an operator?
      <http://lorinhochstein.wordpress.com/2013/11/30/adopt-an-op/>

Lorin Hochstein <http://lorinhochstein.wordpress.com/> made what he
calls “a modest proposal”: a program to pair up individual OpenStack
developers with OpenStack operators to encourage better information flow
from ops to devs. Sounds intriguing, it may be a way to try tightening
the gap between developers and users of OpenStack. Another proposal
trying to address the same issue was sent to the User Committee mailing
list
<http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/user-committee/2013-November/000192.html>.

      Vmware Workstation / Fusion / Player Nova driver
      <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2013-December/020770.html>

The fine folks at Cloudbase are heavily using VMware Workstation and
Fusion for development, demos and PoCs. They have replaced their
automation scripts with a fully functional Nova driver and use OpenStack
APIs and Heat for the automation. They published the results of their
work as a Nova driver on github.com
<https://github.com/cloudbase/nova-vix-driver/>.
