I Just wanted to thank the various Red Hatters at LCA in Canberra
last week. A number of attendee's commented about the sheer number
of Red Hat people that appear to be involved in OpenStack which was
great.<br>
<br>
I'd recommend anyone who is interested to take a look at the
schedule as a number of the talks are now available in video form<br>

I'd like to give a particular shout out to Steve and Angus who
presented a session on Heat.<br>
<br>
Some Miniconf sessions I'd recommend are<br>

<br>
A couple of comments from some of the OpenStack leads present at the
event.<br>
- Red Hat have provided great governance and guidance, in
particular helping clean up the duplication across various projects<br>
- They need an easier way to spin up Red Hat instances for testing
the recent OpenStack builds<br>
<br>
My personal view is we need to play some catch up within the
OpenStack community. There is a lot of Ubuntu and a lot of Ceph,
leaving Gluster/RHS out in the cold and very little mention of RHEL
or Fedora.<br>
<br>
Just my thoughts<br>
