oVirt Workshop at LinuxCon North America

Hello everyone, Following up from this week's IRC meeting, we've asked the Linux Foundation to replicate the agenda from LinuxCon Japan on the LC North America site. That's in process, but they'd like us to get the names and bios of our confirmed speakers to them no later than next Wednesday, 27 June 2012. I'll leave it to everyone to wrangle about who would like to speak and cover particular sessions. My goal with this workshop is to have a more diverse speaker line up, so please do volunteer if you're attending LinuxCon North America and would be willing to lead a session(s).

I will be there for the workshop to do the node presentation. I can also help with the overview and demo. Are there people from the engine team and vdsm teams planning to go? Since it's not listed here, LinuxCon North America is August 29-31 in San Diego. Mike

leslie - I suggest polling for other suggestions for sessions as well. maybe someone working with ovirt, or extending it, or developing something interesting for a future use case would want to cover it in the workshop. thanks, Itamar

Agreed that this would be most welcome - I sent off the agenda from LC Japan to the Linux Foundation so we had something to display on the conference site to encourage folks to register. What are topics that the other list members would like to see us present? Present themselves? As Mike stated earlier, LinuxCon North America takes place in San Diego, California, US on 29-31 August. The oVirt workshop takes place the day before the conference proper begins, on Tuesday, 28 August. https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon Cheers, LH -- Leslie Hawthorn Community Action and Impact Open Source and Standards @ Red Hat identi.ca/lh twitter.com/lhawthorn

I got some great responses from people on the list when I asked what they were using oVirt for - perhaps you/we could invite someone to do an oVirt user case study or two? That would be an interesting session to me. Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Neary Community Action and Impact Open Source and Standards Team, Red Hat Phone: +33 9 50 71 55 62

I think this plan would be wonderful. We haven't yet establish a CFP process or other means to do this outreach formally. What would folks like to see happen? I would propose we decide on the number of slots we'd like to dedicate to case studies or other in the field oriented presentations and, for now, directly invite those we would like to present. Establishing a CFP process quickly would be welcome, as I believe we will have more speaking slots to fill at the KVM Forum + oVirt workshop at LinuxCon Europe. I'm getting specifics on the schedule for that from the Linux Foundation and will return with an update when I have more details.

Regarding LinuxCon NA in San Diego, do we know who is available in advance and to be present to help organize? I ask because I think I can do that one, and I'm fairly sure I cannot do LinuxCon Europe. :) Who from the Board is going to be at which conference? Can you or anyone else coming with you help with advance or onsite organizing?

While I'm not a board member, I'll be in San Diego, though not sure of travel dates yet. It's unlikely that I'll be Barcelona despite wanting to be there. Mike

More on the workshops themselves here: http://www.ovirt.org/wiki/OVirt_Global_Workshops For LinuxCon North America, the Linux Foundation is using the agenda from the LC Japan workshop as a placeholder on the website until we get them a confirmed agenda and speaker list. If you were able to help shepherd the CFP process or whatever process the community chooses going forward, that would be welcome help! Cheers, LH
