Open Stack

Another note for Architecture and Operations track chairs:

There are many presentations currently in our track that are better 
suited for other tracks. If you have time, please use the "request 
category change" function in the tool to move those to the more 
appropriate track.

In particular, I'm finding that there are many presentations that are 
"fundamentals"/"beginners"/101 - which are perfect for the "Cloud and 
OpenStack 101" track.

Additionally, there are some presentations specific to NFV that should 
go to the "Telecom and NFV" track. (Though submissions about cloud ops 
activity that just happen to be in an an NFV context are fine to stay)


The more we lean, the easier our challenge during the selection period is.

Thanks for your help!



Regards,



Tom
