Open Stack

I +1 that Bruno, that would probably be very interesting for an app dev, and/or company behind. 

Can perhaps go one step further if there are many participants and give that to 2-4 place too, depending on how many cloud providers are up for it...

(Shouldn't be a problem convincing CEOs of the benefit ;) )

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 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?
