[openstack-dev] Operators & Design Summit ideas for Atlanta

Based on some off-list chatter with Michael, Tom and others, I went ahead
and submitted a proposal for a nova session -
http://summit.openstack.org/cfp/details/245 - and used Tom's wording from
those submitted to other products.  This will hold a place while the Nova
PTL election finishes and we'll go from there.

Thanks!
Matt
