Just a quick note: as you can imagine we have finite space at the event,
and the OpenStack Foundation wants to give priority to teams which have
a diverse affiliation (or which are not tagged "single-vendor").
Depending on which teams decide to take advantage of the event and which
don't, we may or may not be able to offer space to single-vendor
projects -- and TripleO is currently tagged single-vendor.

The rationale is, the more organizations are involved in a given project
team, the more value there is to offer common meeting space to that team
for them to sync on priorities and get stuff done. If more than 90% of
contributions / reviews / core reviewers come from a single
organization, there is less coordination needs and less value in having
all those people from a single org to travel to a distant place to have
a team meeting. And as far as recruitment of new team members go (to
increase that diversity), the OpenStack Summit will be a better venue to
do that.

I hope we'll be able to accommodate you, though. And in all cases
TripleO people are more than welcome to join the event to coordinate
with other teams. It's just not 100% sure we'll be able to give you a
dedicated room for multiple days. We should know better in a week or so,
once we get a good idea of who plans to meet at the event and who doesn't.
