1) Work on the website and docs to make Cloudstack look more attractive
for people looking for a cloud orchestration solution.
- clear description of what it does
- clearly identify target environments - company datacentres, cloud
service providers, software development teams, etc.
- clear identification of benefits for each target as opposed to other
solutions
- add customer testimonials from each of the target markets.
2) cleanup roadmap, remove wrong and contradictory information
3) use social media to direct people to the new information.
The team has done a great job in getting a strong presence in the
presentations
4) put out a regular stream of messaging about each of the presentations
in social media.
There are some local Montreal groups on social media. I will try to add
to the list.
- https://twitter.com/technomontreal?lang=en
- https://www.linkedin.com/company/technomontr%C3%A9al/?originalSubdomain=ca
- https://www.meetup.com/cities/ca/qc/montr%C3%A9al/tech/
Perhaps we should develop a list of "important" social media venues and
regularly share important news on them.

All good to hear - looking forward to seeing you all
Whilst we're on this subject, I thought I would chime in with this:
This will be the second year that we've co-located Cloudstack Collaboration
Conference with Apachecon. Last year (Miami) was really successful: great
agenda, great talks, really well organised. However, our attendance was down
compared with all previous CloudStack Collaboration Conferences.
IMO, this was down to the fact that, previously, we had always promoted CCC from within
the community as it was "our" event. However, last year, I think we all sat
back a little and expected Apachecon folks to do that.
A lot of work has gone in to putting a great agenda together again
(http://ca.cloudstackcollab.org/#schedule)
I see that many people on this list will already be coming (or considering
coming) either specifically for Cloudstack collab or to attend the broader
apachecon talks, but it would be really great if we can get the attendance up
from last year.
So, if everybody could help us a little, it would be very much apprecited
Some specific call outs:
1. please share on social media (look for @cloudstack @ApacheCon). Share your
talk, share others talk, share the conference generally
2. If you're in this community, please make every effort to try and come. These
conferences really are great for ideas, sharing problems, learning, working
together, etc
3. Bring others: if you're coming, bring a colleague, bring a customer, bring a
partner (Montreal is a great City)
Any other ideas?
Kind regards
Giles

Hi all,
I was wondering who would be going to Apache CloudStack Collab conference
of 2018 on September 24-26th, Montreal, Canada?
I know it's still early, but if you know, we could (a bit later i.e.
beginning of September) organise some beer sessions or so, after the
official presentation hours are done, catch up, team spirit buildup and
such...
Cheers
Andrija
