This would be something I would be very interested in.

last year the Devops room was run pretty much by Puppet labs but they
covered Chef/Vagrant, Cfengine, Foreman, Gepetto even some Windows.
You could cover the core projects Nova, Swift, Glance and Keystone,
then open it up to people like Dell with Barclamp, maybe some of the
Storage back end folk getting involved now like Ceph or Nexenta might
be interested. I am sure others I can not think of are also
interested.
