Re: [openstack-community] Calling all user group and meetup organizers

 

Hi,

Unfortunately I might not be able to attend the meetup tonight (evening in
Sweden), but would be glad to
go through the minutes when they are made available.

Kudos for the idea regarding an available speakers list, having experts at
events makes them more attractive
for participants.

Regards,
/Nico.
