Open Stack

To simply answer the question:

Yes I have experience about this specific matter of things as I’m now
working with the exact setup for more than 5 years. I’m even exclusively
working remotely with some studios of my employer.

It’s not that expensive as long as you get correct rules, hardware and the
stream owner physically on the room to act as a conductor.

Remember that the 4th mantra of the Openstack project HAVE to be respected
if we really want to get people to join us and share. They need to feel at
home in order to contribute as they have to feel useful to really be
interested to participate. Additionally, Openstack being way more vast than
let say Kubernetes it NEED such extra care in order to keep its community
strong and passionate at a point where they will naturally advocate and
work on it.

That’s indeed my first year of participating into the Openstack community
even if I’m working on Openstack since the Essex version because I didn’t
felt skilled and included enough until now.

Why did I change my mind? Because of the sidney summit and presentation of
these Open rules plus my communication with you people over irc/emails etc.
