24 Dec '12

Hi everyone, The provisional agenda for the oVirt Workshop in Sunnyvale is now online! We have lined up a very attractive schedule, I think, covering user case studies, integrator stories, and sessions useful for both newcomers to the oVirt project and partners interested in integrating or modifying the project: http://www.ovirt.org/NetApp_Workshop_January_2013 A reminder that you can still register for this free workshop, which will be held in Sunnyvale, California from January 22-24 2013, at http://ovirtnetapp2013.eventbrite.com/ - registration will close on January 14th. Thank you all! And happy holidays for those of you who celebrate Christmas!

RFC: oVirt NetApp workshop Call for Content
by Dave Neary 05 Dec '12

05 Dec '12

Hi all, I just put a draft call for content in a new page for the NetApp workshop on the wiki: http://www.ovirt.org/NetApp_Workshop_January_2013 The call for contents is basically a copy of the topic list from the KVM Forum/oVirt Workshop in Barcelona. Some points to note: * I set the deadline close, so that we could notify speakers before the holidays, and allow people coming from further away to organise travel arrangements. Is 2 weeks for a Call for Content enough? * We will re-use the workshop-pc mailing list for proposals and discussion. There was an open discussion point about what our subscription and posting policy should be for the list - I suggest that non-members may post to the list, and anyone can subscribe. I would like to actively reach out to some oVirt users and partners to ensure that we have a diverse set of content for the conference - I would expecially like to hear some interesting case studies about the ways that oVirt is being used! Can I get some comments on this quickly, please? If it is acceptable, I would like to push it more widely this evening. Thanks, Dave. Call for Content We are actively seeking speakers for this workshop. We are interested in talks in the following areas: * Case studies of oVirt deployments * Using oVirt effectively * oVirt Project Roadmaps * Deep dives into features/areas * Deep dives into code/debugging/tuning * Integration and extensions * Components: engine, vdsm, node, sdk/cli, reports, mom, guest agent, etc. * Subjects: network, storage, vm life cycle, scheduling & sla, gluster, etc. * Packaging, installation and distributions * Community infrastructure and services Please submit talk proposals for review by sending a message to workshop-pc(a)ovirt.org. Your email should include your full name, speaker biography and your talk abstract. We will accept submissions through Friday, 14 December 2012 at 23:55 UTC. Speakers will be notified of acceptance by Friday, 21 December 2012. Accepted speakers should plan to submit their slides to the workshop-pc(a)ovirt.org mailing list no later than close of business on Friday, 18 January 2013. -- Dave Neary - Community Action and Impact Open Source and Standards, Red Hat - http://community.redhat.com Ph: +33 9 50 71 55 62 / Cell: +33 6 77 01 92 13
