A Google Hangout is an option.  My only reluctance is that I don't want a Google+ account to be a barrier to participation if we can avoid it.  I don't have a strong opinion here, do others?


As far as an agenda, I'd like to accomplish the following:

1) I'd like to hear from those who are currently or /planning to stand up an HPC cloud
2) Discussion on the best practices for (1)
3) I'd like to give an update on the HPC extensions we're working on
4) User feedback - what features are missing (low hanging fruit, especially)

This may be more than we can get to in an initial meeting, but it's a start.  I'm also open to other agenda items.

best,
JP
