[Openstack] Bringing focus to the Operators and Users at the next summit

2013-12-11 Thread Tristan Goode
G'day OpenStackLand, I have an idea for the next summit to put forward... Like we have the various project design summit session days at the summits, I think it'd be really useful to have an Operators and Users day at the very start of the next summit (and hopefully all of them in future if i
