​​I'm Roland Chan, COO of Aptira and from a telco engineering background
prior to that.

I'm interested in how the Foundation's strategies are realised through the
structures and efforts of the OpenStack community. How we define who our
customers are and how that definition affects what the community delivers
is also of great interest.

I won't be at Paris I'm afraid. Perhaps next time.
