Open Stack

I am onboard with leaving it open until Sunday and formally announcing it.

I think a statement like, "we have got a lot of recent submissions and want to ensure some folks who were on vacation, getting back from recent events, and who just put it off until the last minute, etc, have a little more time to get their submission in", makes sense if we do formally announce.

    Hi All -
    
    We currently have 65 submissions with 69 spaces total available for the 
    Forum.  If you're curious about the submissions we have thus far, you 
    can review them here: 
    https://www.openstack.org/summit/berlin-2018/vote-for-speakers#/22786
    
    Before we start reviewing and selecting, we have the option of extending 
    the date. In my experience, this hasn't resulted in a ton of extra 
    submissions, but it's an option should we feel it's needed.  Right now, 
    I've left the CFP tool open in the event someone has a time zone issue 
    or needs to do some last minute edits.
    
    I'll throw it out to the Selection Committee whether we want to fully 
    advertise an extension. If we do, I'd recommend shutting it down by 
    Sunday, October 30 at 11:59pm Pacific.
    
    Let me know what y'all think.
    
    Thank you!
    Jimmy
