[Users] CfP: Virtualisation and IaaS DevRoom at FOSDEM'14

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/fosdem14-virt-and-iaas-devroom Call for Participation The scope for this devroom is open source, openly-developed projects in the areas of virtualisation and IaaS type clouds, ranging from low level to data center, up to cloud management platforms and cloud resource orchestration. Sessions should always target a developer audience. Bonus points for collaborative sessions that would be appealing to developers from multiple projects. We are particularly interested in the following themes: - low level virtualisation aspects - new features in classic and container-based virtualisation technologies - new use cases for virtualisation, such as virtualisation in mobile, automotive and embedded in general - other resource virtualisation technologies: networking, storage, … - deep technical dives into specific IaaS or virtualisation management projects features - relationship between IaaS projects and specific dependencies (not just virtualisation) - integration and development leveraging solutions from multiple projects Important dates Submission deadline: Sunday, December 1st, 2013 Acceptance notifications: Sunday, December 15th, 2013 Final schedule announcement: Friday January 10th, 2014 Devroom @ FOSDEM'14: February 1st & 2nd, 2014 Practical Submissions should be 40 minutes, and consist of a 30 minute presentation with 10 minutes of Q&A or 40 minutes of discussions (e.g., requests for feedback, open discussions, etc.). Interactivity is encouraged, but optional. Talks are in English only. We do not provide travel assistance or reimbursement of travel expenses for accepted speakers. Submissions should be made via the FOSDEM submission page at https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM14 : - If necessary, create a Pentabarf account and activate it - In the “Person” section, provide First name, Last name (in the “General” tab), Email (in the “Contact” tab) and Bio (“Abstract” field in the “Description” tab) - Submit a proposal by clicking on “Create event" - Important! Select the "Virtualisation and IaaS" track (on the “General” tab) - Provide the title of your talk (“Event title” in the “General” tab) - Provide a 250-word description of the subject of the talk and the intended audience (in the “Abstract” field of the “Description” tab) - Provide a rough outline of the talk or goals of the session (a short list of bullet points covering topics that will be discussed) in the “Full description” field in the “Description” tab Contact For questions w.r.t. the Virtualisation and IaaS DevRoom at FOSDEM'14, please contact the organizers via fosdem14-virt-and-iaas-devroom@googlegroups.com (or via https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/fosdem14-virt-and-iaas-devroom).

Hi, A reminder to everyone, we're getting close to the deadline! I would love to see some dev/DevOps-focussed presentations about oVirt at the conference. Again, I would love to see some oVirt users propose topics about how the use, manage and deploy oVirt in real life circumstances. Some ideas I think might get in, if you've done any of these and are interested in presenting, let me know: * Using Foreman/Puppet/Ansible/... with the oVirt APIs & CLI to orchestrate & provision VMs on oVirt * Using oVirt for VDI * Migrating from vSphere to oVirt * Using VDSM hooks and scripts to tweak VM lifecycle management * Storage - how to add a new storage engine type to oVirt (using libgfapi support as an example, perhaps?) Thanks! Dave. On 10/22/2013 10:55 PM, Itamar Heim wrote:
