The deadline for Queens Forum topic submissions is tomorrow. Based on 
our etherpad:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/SYD-nova-brainstorming

I plan to propose something like:

1. Cells v2 update and direction

This would be an update on what happened in Pike, upgrade impacts, known 
issues, etc and what we're doing in Queens. I think we'd also lump the 
Pike quota behavior changes in here too if possible.

2. Placement update and direction

Same as the Cells v2 discussion - a Pike update and the focus items for 
Queens. This would also be a place we can mention the Ironic flavor 
migration to custom resource classes that happens in Pike.

3. Queens development focus and checkpoint

This would be a session to discuss anything in flight for Queens, what 
we're working on, and have a chance to ask questions of operators/users 
for feedback. For example, we plan to add vGPU support but it will be 
quite simple to start, similar with volume multi-attach.

4. Michael Still had an item in the etherpad about privsep. That could 
be a cross-project educational session on it's own if he's going to give 
a primer on what privsep is again and how it's integrated into projects. 
This session could be lumped into #3 above but is probably better on 
it's own if it's going to include discussion about operational impacts. 
I'm going to ask that mikal runs with this though.

----

There are some other things in the etherpad about hardware acceleration 
features and documentation, and I'll leave it up to others if they want 
to propose those sessions.
