Open Stack

Hi all,

In response to the previous recommendation on using the ##hashtag [1,2,3,4] at OpenStack Forum, the initial data is ready and is tentatively published at this repo [5]. 

In the repo [5], you can see a list of ##hashtag that were used at Boston Forum sessions, with a link to the relevant etherpad url and line number. 
These ##hashtag data were generated based on the etherpad links listed at the Forum wiki page [6]. 

Although not every moderator/forum-sessions participated, we did see useful tags being used (##newfeature, ##gap, ##painpoint, ##best-practice, etc)  in various discussion such as Public Cloud, NFV, etc., and a few projects were called out (##nova, ##ironic, ##keystone, ##gnocchi, etc).

This is the very first time we introduce ##hashtag mechanism at the Forum and with a "MVP" program to aggregate the data. 
We hope and plan to do more analysis and generate useful information. 
All feedback/questions/comment in any kind are very welcome. :-)
