Hi all,

We've come a long way since our first small meeting in San Jose: I've 
looked at the survey feedback around the Ops Meetup at the Atlanta 
summit and it was amazingly successful. That's all thanks to you.

It's now time to organise our next meeting. Details forthcoming, but we 
know that it's going to be over two days, August 25th and 26th in San 
Antonio, Texas, USA, thanks to Rackspace.

However, first - we need to work on the content we'd like to see.

The strongest response to the summit survey was a desire for sessions 
that really "connect" the ops/dev feedback loop full-circle, and see 
change actually happening. So this time, in addition to 
feedback-gathering sessions, I'm hoping to see at least a few real 
working sessions, much more "development" focused. Perhaps "blueprint 
review" might be one of these, or maybe the "enterprise" working group 
would like to have a working meeting.

Aside from this, it turns out that people actually liked the topics we 
picked for the summit ops meetup - well done! The more 
presentation-style architecture "show and tell" was also enjoyed, but 
people wanted to change up the format a bit. Two back-to-back hours was 
too long :)

Please take a moment to jot down your ideas on how to shape this next 
meeting on the following etherpad:
