No strong opinion, but FWIW I chose "deployment" because I'd like to see collaboration not only around tools, but also around experiences and abstract workflow (e.g we could have all shared experiences around, say, nova upgrades without necessarily focussing on any one tool). "deployment" seems like a catch-all and it uses less characters in the subject line ;) But I'm happy to go with the consensus here. I agree ML/IRC should be sufficient, at least in the first instance. Steve,openstack-deployment makes sense to me given the above. The only downside I see is there is a bit of overlap with #openstack-operators given the objectives you stated. I think that is a solvable problem. I've registered #openstack-deployment and #openstack-deploy-tools properly. If the OpenStack deployment project members wish to proceed, I will commit to doing the legwork of setting up the bots/etc on the final name we come up with even if it isn't one of the above two :)
This sounds like a good thing to have! Thank you all for starting this, Flavio -- @flaper87 Flavio Percoco
