FYI - in case nobody caught this. Does libcloud typically participate in these requests? I think it would be good visibility for libcloud.

Thanks again & bon weekend, Sally ----- Original Message ----- From: Sally Khudairi <[email protected]> To: ASF Marketing & Publicity <[email protected]> Cc: Sent: Monday, 26 January 2015, 10:54 Subject: Analyst Request for ASF Cloud Computing roadmap Hello PMCs -- I have received a request from industry analysts Forrester Research for an update on all our Cloud-related projects. If your project is anywhere in the Cloud space, please answer the following questions and return to me no later than Wednesday 28 January. Assume the reader knows nothing: be as concise as possible. As reference URLs are appreciated, we'll still need the information below; don't just send a link! Thanks in advance for your help with this. -Sally = = = 1) Name of project: 2) Are you a TLP? Sub-project? Podling? In the Apache Labs? 3) Are you related to any other Apache projects (e.g., "currently a sub-project of Apache PROJECTNAME" or "developed to support/augment Apache PROJECTNAME") 4) What do you do? (1-2 sentence description, DOAP-style please!) 5) How long have you existed? (if you came to the ASF from another place, please state "PROJECTNAME began in YEAR at ORIGINATINGLOCATION, and entered the Apache Incbuator in YEAR" or as otherwise appropriate) 6) What products do you have? (if your Project has more than one product, please list all names. Any sub-projects should be specified as such) 7) What are the latest releases? 8) What's next from your project? (specify a general direction vs. "v4.6 will be released in February" --any details pertaining to what that release will address would help) 9) What have you done in order to get momentum for your work? (e.g., conferences, workshops/meetups, targeted outreach, etc.) 10) Who uses you? (if you aren't able to list any names, you can specify sectors, e.g. "Apache PROJECTNAME is used in financial services, healthcare, and software development") 11) Which companies contribute(d) to the creation and support of this project? (some projects detail this; others don't. Big-picture, it doesn't matter since ASF contributions are made by individuals. But if you have the information available, I'll share it on a case-by-case basis). # # #
