The following are the meetups I'm aware of in the coming week where RDO enthusiasts are likely to be present. If you know of others, please let me know, and/or add them to http://openstack.redhat.com/Events If there's a meetup in your area, please consider attending. It's the best way to find out what interesting things are going on in the larger community, and a great way to make contacts that will help you solve your own problems in the future. And don't forget to blog about it, tweet about it, G+ about it. --Rich * Wednesday, December 17 in Austin, TX, US: CloudAustin December: The Twelve Clouds of Christmas - http://www.meetup.com/CloudAustin/events/212248062/ * Wednesday, December 17 in Mountain View, CA, US: A production deployment of SaltStack 2014.7 - http://www.meetup.com/SaltStack-user-group-Silicon-Valley/events/219088938/ * Tuesday, December 16 in Belfast, GB: DevOps Belfast - OpenStack, building your own cloud. - http://www.meetup.com/DevOps-Belfast/events/215956092/ * Wednesday, December 17 in Montevideo, UY: Openstack - nova boot --flavor m1.tiny meetup0 - http://www.meetup.com/DevOps-MVD/events/213384542/ * Thursday, December 18 in Mountain View, CA, US: Group based Policy in OpenDaylight - http://www.meetup.com/OpenDaylight-Silicon-Valley/events/219221090/ * Thursday, December 18 in Portland, OR, US: OSNW Birthday: Beat the Holidays with an extra dose of knowledge - http://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Northwest/events/218941697/ * Wednesday, December 17 in Berlin, DE: OpenStack DACH Day 2015: Vereinsgründung - http://www.meetup.com/openstack-de/events/219117732/ * Thursday, December 18 in Mountain View, CA, US: Online Meetup: DefCore - making OpenStack standard and interoperable - http://www.meetup.com/Cloud-Online-Meetup/events/219190801/ * Thursday, December 18 in New York, NY, US: "Is OpenStack ready for Enterprises?" - http://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-for-Enterprises-NYC/events/218900712/ * Friday, December 19 in Whittier, CA, US: Introduction to Red Hat and OpenShift (cohost with South Bay LAJUG) - http://www.meetup.com/Greater-Los-Angeles-Area-Red-Hat-User-Group-RHUG/ev... * Friday, December 19 in San Francisco, CA, US: South Bay OpenStack Meetup, Beginner track - http://www.meetup.com/openstack/events/218900735/ * Friday, December 19 in Atlanta, GA, US: OpenStack Meetup (Topic TBD) - http://www.meetup.com/openstack-atlanta/events/218782182/ * Saturday, December 20 in Beijing, CN: SDN Tech Talk:OpenStack Networking(Neutron) &ONOS(Open Network Operating System) - http://www.meetup.com/sdneer/events/219249488/ * Sunday, December 21 in Beijing, CN: OpenStack技术论坛 - http://www.meetup.com/China-OpenStack-User-Group/events/219206776/ -- Rich Bowen - rbowen(a)redhat.com OpenStack Community Liaison http://openstack.redhat.com/
