That's great to hear!  It would be ideal if you can attend the PTG so we 
can get this planned out for Victoria.  The time slots we'll be using 
are at the top of this etherpad:

https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-victoria-ptg-planning

Just add in the topic at the bottom of the etherpad, and if you have a 
preference for time slot, indicate that along with your topic.


cheers,
brian
