Open Stack

Yup. I agree with Gene that we have a deficit of App Dev at the summit.
Either they hide, or they are simply not there.

I know for a fact that one of our client (we are a public cloud based on OS, they are a huge ecommerce platform), sent its IT guys but just one of his devs...

Hackaton are amazing and we should keep invest strongly in it, but I think we also need to find ways to reach inside the organizations themselves.
Sad part: I don’t have that many good ideas how to do that right now :)

    Hi Lauren,
    
    I was working with Flanders as a mentor at the Cloud App Labs Lounge and Python shade SDK training session[1] in Barcelona.
    
    I’m not sure about other sessions related to app-devs, but I found that most or even all of the attendees of Cloud App Labs and shade SDK training are not app developers.
    
    In my opinion, we should be focusing more on this community outside of summits. Hackathons may be a good idea as high percentage of the participant are app-devs.
    
    Thanks,

    Hi Chris,
    
    I did not attend the meeting in Barcelona, but the name change and shift to a functional team makes sense to me. One potential small tweak to the wording could be App Dev Enablement?
    
    Referencing your agenda from the Barcelona meeting, I’m excited about the efforts to improve developer.openstack.org and openstack.org/appdev. In terms of collaborating with other working groups, I’m anxious to hear how the enterprise WG book sprint about migrating / running apps on OpenStack went last week. Seems like a place your team might want to be involved, or at least consider how we leverage and promote the content.
    
    I also saw notes about mapping the mix of events. I would love to get some feedback about our efforts to attract more app developers to Barcelona and the right strategy for the future, i.e. do we think we’ll ever attract a critical mass of app developers to an OpenStack Summit, or should we be focusing our efforts to educate and build this community outside of the Summits?
    
    Thanks,
    Lauren
