[FOSDEM] FOSDEM 2012: Open source Virtualization and Cloud devroom: Call for speakers

[Thierry Carrez]

Hello everyone,

The devroom named "Open Source Virtualization and Cloud" (OSVC2012)
scheduled at FOSDEM on both days, February 4-5 2012, is a meeting
opportunity for the developers of all the innovative open source
projects around virtualization and cloud computing.

OSVC2012 will include:

* state-of-the-art presentations of virtualization/cloud projects
* workshops to brainstorm and discuss new user requests, new developer
ideas, and the possible synergies between projects

All information about the devroom will be posted on the wiki at:
http://osvc.v2.cs.unibo.it


Relevant topics
===============

All developers who want to present their ideas and software at OSVC2012

software or open source license (its license must meet the FSF
