All I've just had a long chat with Magie Meer, who organises Cloudexpo Europe.
For next years show (29/30 Jan, London) , they are going to do an open cloud hall/area and want to give 3 or 4 cloud opensource communities some free space at the show. My guess is that will be openstack, ACS, eucalyptus & opennebula and that they will use these as a way of pulling in commercial sponsors I'd like to say "yes please". I guess that is technically accepting sponsorship so I need a discussion here, PMC approval & a committer to be involved in the organisation (I think). I work with Geoff Higginbottom who can take the committer role. So, please discuss on this list with a view to getting PMC approval One question: if we do say yes, what could we do for an exhibition stand ? - my gut feeling is that she may offer to help us with that also. In terms of manning the stand, it's a long way out, but I'm sure we can find a few people between us (Sebastien et al, a couple of the ShapeBlue guys,etc) Kind Regards Giles Giles Sirett CEO [Description: Mail Logo Bottom Align] D: +44 20 3603 0541 | S: +44 20 3603 0540 | M: +44 796 111 2055 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> | www.shapeblue.com<http://www.shapeblue.com/> | Twitter:@shapeBlue<https://twitter.com/#!/shapeblue> ShapeBlue Ltd, 53 Chandos Place, Covent Garden, London, WC2N 4HS This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
