It has been a year since OpenStack was announced at OSCON. The community responded with broad support for the project. But what has been accomplished? Where does OpenStack seem to be going? And more importantly, where are the business opportunities? In this meeting we will hear from OpenStack consulting companies, distributors and representatives of OpenStack itself. Please join us at this meeting for what is likely to provide a glimpse into the future of the software program that could become as widely adopted as the Apache web server (http://httpd.apache.org/ABOUT_APACHE.html).
