Karen, ignore my request. Despite having just read David's email, I didn't tie your comment up to his comment. I have seen the link, and yes, PMC approval for the conference itself seems to be established. Sorry for the noise! :)
Also, Mark, just to address your previous comment about "hoops". Sorry if my emails are frustrating. I don't want to be a bother. I just think we ought to do this right. (And trying to figure out what that means myself.) I don't think there are any major problems here. If ConCom have already seen this, then that's good. Though, as I mention, I'd like to be able to look up the thread. The only thing I would say here is that priv...@cloudstack.apache.org should be CCed when reaching out to ConCom and Trademarks, and what have you, just so we're all kept in the loop on this stuff. About the trademarks stuff. I guess my only comment would be that this sort of stuff is usually best sorted out before going live. I don't expect we'll have any major problems. But the larger the event, the more circumspect we should be. I just took a look at the website now, with a critical eye. And I have a few questions, with my "user hat" on: 1) Who is running this conference? It looks to me like Apache CloudStack is running it. Is that the case? If so, how is the community being involved? If not, then who is, and what is the relationship to CloudStack? 2) The copyright says "all rights reserved." Not sure where we stand on that sort of thing. At the very least, we may want to add "Apache CloudStack, CloudSTack, and the project logo are trademarks of The Apache Software Foundation" or something.
