Hi,

Zack Cerza who is the driving force behind teuthology kindly accepted to hold 
the first teuthology meeting 

      thursday 19th september 2013, 6pm Paris/Berlin time / 9am Los Angeles 
time. 

Now that #ceph-devel is live we will use it as a back-channel. There is no 
formal agenda except : "I want my own teuthology!" ;-) It will be timeboxed to 
one hour max and the communication channel ( mumble, phone conference ... ) 
will be announced on #ceph-devel half an hour before ( my nick is loicd ).

Cheers
