This week’s highlight: “Participate in the first OpenStack User Survey!” by the OpenStack Foundation: “If you are an OpenStack user or have customers with OpenStack deployments, please take 10 minutes to respond to our first User Survey or pass it along to your network. Our community has grown at an amazing rate in 2.5 years, and it’s time to better define our user base and requirements, so we can respond and advocate accordingly.” You can find more details here.
