Xen Community:
In a follow-up to my previous event posting to the
community,
http://blog.xen.org/index.php/2009/03/19/xen-summit-events-open-discussion/here
is a final proposal for our yearly meetings. Please let me know if you have any
additional feedback or thoughts.
Xen Summit
I am planning to host 2 developer focused events a year with
one in the US (Mid Spring) and one in Asia (Late Fall/Winter). The US events
will alternate between the East and West Coast and the Asia event will rotate
amongst various countries in the region.
These will be highly technical in nature and marketed
internally to the community. Our next Xen Summit is at Intel in Shanghai, China
on November 19 - 20, 2009.
Xen Directions
I am creating a new Xen.org event , Xen Directions, that
will become our technical marketing outreach to various technical communities
such as Linux administrators, Windows administrators, etc. These events will
allow the community to spread the Xen message to a wider audience of people
interested in virtualization.
Our first Xen Directions event is this summer in Germany at
LinuxTAG on June 27th. I am also planning an event in 2010 in South America and
will be looking for other locations to co-locate with. Please let me know if
you are aware of an event that would be perfect for Xen to host a Directions
event with.
Thanks to everyone for their input on this update of our
community event plans and I look forward to continuing our successful expansion
of Xen.org.
