All great reasons why the best and really the only place for this is to open the next summit.

I get the benefit of trying to do this at another event when a lot of folks will be there anyway, but at the same time, I think there are some pretty significant discussions we need to have, as operators, if we want to push Openstack to be what it can be. If that's the case, I don’t' know that trying to fit a few talks, sessions or other short visits inside another event is going to do it justice. From the pain of large deploys, to the inability to run some services in a redundant fashion to the lack of maintaining state when services restart, there are a lot of areas we, as users, can give feedback to the TC and the developers that will help make this product a viable competitor to other cloud offerings (like EC2) out there. It's not there right now, at least at scale, and I think it's up to us to change the trend of development/thought from that of building a cool private cloud technology to scaling the product to 10's of thousands, 100's of thousands or millions of nodes. A lot needs to be done to make that happen. Anyway, I think to accurately hash out the things we like to see for all this, we should find a time that we can get together for a couple days and discuss it all in detail without trying to stay focused on material from another conference. That's my $.02 at least. I'll gladly do what ever, but wanted to challenge this current thread about attaching this effort to another event a little. Thanks a ton!
