Let's install DevStack on an Intel NUC and raffle it off!

I'm often asked how to get started with OpenStack -- many folk want to understand basic functionality, others want to demonstrate OpenStack to their peers or managers, and of course, others want to learn how to contribute code to OpenStack projects.

What is DevStack? have a look: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/devstack/guides.html

"DevStack is a series of extensible scripts used to quickly bring up a complete OpenStack environment based on the latest versions of everything from git master. It is used interactively as a development environment and as the basis for much of the OpenStack project’s functional testing."

Whether you are a seasoned Stacker who wants to meet up and share knowledge with others, or, if you are new to OpenStack and want to see what it is all about -- please come by!

Bring your laptop and follow along as we walk through a DevStack install to an Intel NUC (small form factor computer) -- you of course will install to a virtualbox or VMware-based environment on your laptop.

Best of all -- we'll raffle off the Intel NUC with a complete install of DevStack.

Limited seating only --- first 30 to rsvp are in!

We will have other prizes from our sponsors, as well as some snacks and drinks -- so don't miss out!

TLDR: get DevStack installed on your laptop and meet some Vancouver Stackers.
