Thanks Carol From: Sousou, Imad [mailto:imad.sou...@intel.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 09, 2015 1:28 PM To: openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org; community-ow...@lists.openstack.org; openst...@lists.openstack.org Subject: [openstack-dev] OpenStack Diversity Working Group Stackers - We're happy to announce the creation of a Diversity Working Group. The genesis for this work group was a discussion at the May meeting of the OpenStack Board of Directors ahead of the Vancouver Summit. The Board is committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming place for all people to collaborate to drive innovation and design cutting-edge data center capabilities, while finding the best answers to our most pressing challenges. To achieve this, the Board formed this Work Group to determine what actions are required to fulfill this commitment. Three Board members volunteered to work with community members in this Work Group and bring updates/requests to the Board for discussion and action on a regular basis, starting with the July meeting.
