Hi all, 

I've incorporated some of the feedback and added version #2 of the Apache 
CloudStack presentation template to the wiki. It includes Arial font and is in 
PowerPoint format (.POTx). I've also uploaded the template in OpenOffice (.odp) 
format. There is sample text to show how the layout of the presentation 
template is supposed to look like. The title font & box colors match the 
current Apache CloudStack logo colors (used Photoshop to get the RGB colors). 
Check it out and feel free to let us know if you have any feedback or 
suggestions. Thanks!

Thanks, 

Karen

Okay, good to know. 

I also saw your note re: swapping out the front page image for the monkey, and 
doing a version on a black background - I've been a bit loaded up at work and 
on vacation the past few days, so hopefully I can get to these things sometime 
this week.

Re: The .ppt thing - I will see what I can do (I lack an MS office license)...
