Hello,


It seems that my sent e-mail was filtered to mailing lists because there 
are too many recipients.

So I am forwarding it to two mailing lists!

Hello Ildiko,

Thanks a lot for sharing the meeting notes, and sorry for not
participating in the last meeting.
(It was 2:00 AM locally, and this constraint sometimes prevent me from
attending the meeting.)

I have read all of them, and it is so nice! I would like to propose the
followings:

1) I generally agree with our on-going steps, but I would like to more
encourage participants to prepare
such development environment, although we will provide it as a virtual
machine.
So it would be much better if we specify 'Prerequisites' or
'Preparation' on the upstream training registration page,
rather than announcing 'How to prepare' page (
http://docs.openstack.org/upstream-training/#how-to-prepare ) after the
registration.

2) I am not sure if there is 'OpenStack Sandbox' launchpad which is
linked to our sandbox repository
http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-dev/sandbox .
Such launchpad would be nice for exercise, rather than dealing with
triaging and changing bug status on real OpenStack project bugs.


With many thanks,

/Ian

It would be a great way of getting some or maybe all of the content work done for example if we have enough participants. The ideal time would be early September which should give us enough time to finish whatever has left for Barcelona still in time. The preferred length would be 3 days.
