JP: I think this was a great idea, we were thinking about proposing this if nobody else did. I would suggest making it OpenStack-specific, since there was an "HPC in the Cloud" BoF last year (http://sc11.supercomputing.org/schedule/event_detail.php?evid=bof140), and they'll probably re-apply this year as well. I think we can get critical mass for an OpenStack BoF. Along these lines: Chris Hoge from U. Oregon gave a talk last week at OSCON about their use of OpenStack on HPC http://www.oscon.com/oscon2012/public/schedule/detail/24261 (There are some good slides attached to that web page) Take care, Lorin -- Lorin Hochstein Lead Architect - Cloud Services Nimbis Services, Inc. www.nimbisservices.com
