Meetups are usually around 2 hours from experience ? No longer than that.
We can do three 30 minute time slots and allow an intro at the beginning and then some break time inbetween ?

Organizing something longer than that would be tedious I think.

And yeah, it'd be cheap -- no room, food or swag required !

This makes me wonder...

Would it be a good idea to do a "virtual" RDO meetup with real presenters and everything ?

I'd love to hear about how people are contributing, using or deploying RDO.

Maybe once per quarter ?

Physical meetups are very local and this means a lot of folks probably never even get the chance to participate in an OpenStack meetup, let alone hear about RDO.

They'd be recorded by default and available on YouTube ? It would be a great resource IMO.


This sounds like a great idea, and should be fairly cheap/easy to arrange.

Are you thinking of a full-day event, like a mini-conference, or something shorter like an hour or two?

    Long ago, we used to do monthly (or even more frequent) hangouts

    I'd like to start doing those again, following the same model as the

    I'll be reaching out to the various project PTLs, but wanted to
    start with this list here to get started.

    If you would like to talk about your work in OpenStack Upstream - 30
    minutes or less - please let me know, and I'll begin to draw up a
    schedule. I'd like to start with one every two weeks, and as we'll
    be recording them they can happen any time of day that's convenient
    for you - ie, not necessarily live events that people will "attend".

    Thanks.
