Please welcome Doug to the Governance WG.

Brief Introduction from Doug:

I am the founder of SDN Essentials and have been involved with open contrail 
from the start, actually doing some of the initial deployments myself when 
contrail was first released and not very stable 😊 I was also doing the basic 
training classes and workshops for Contrail.  We then started to grow our team, 
and I moved the hands-on portion to the PS team where we worked with a handful 
on clients (ATT being the largest).  I was also involved in a product that 
integrated with Contrail, a network orchestrator called NFV Grid.  In May of 
this year, SDN Essentials was sold to a new parent company (Redapt.com) so the 
software did not stay with SDN Essentials.  From an open source and standards 
bodies perspective, I was the WAN Carrier Chair for the ONF for two years and 
also help build their SDN certification exam. (I wrote a lot of the OSCA).  
Most recently, been more involved in the MEF and their initiatives.   SDN 
Essentials is also a silver member of Open Daylight and a member of the New Ip 
Agency (lightreading).    We have about 10 contrail engineers on staff, and 
have a lap with 24 instances of contrail/openstack for our training classes.
