1) The Original Get Involved! Apache CloudStack welcomes contribution and community participation through mailing lists as well as attending face-to-face MeetUps, developer trainings, and user events. Catch CloudStack in action at the CloudStack Collaboration Conference, the official user/developer conference of the Apache CloudStack community, 19-21 November 2014 in Budapest, Hungary @CCCEU14 http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/cloudstack-collaboration-conference-europe 2) The Dinosaur, pointing to the Twitter feed of the general event via long URL Get Involved!

I'm happy however we do it. Seeing that there were no issues/objections to the original way, perhaps we leave it as is for now and not bash the hornet's nest with a stick.
