So judging from the responses so far, I'd say there is an appetite for doing this. There are also a lot of folks who don't seem to be on this list including most of the other European commercial providers so I've started reaching out to the contacts I have there, and to the other fairly large scale private operators we know in the UK and Europe. It would be great if others could do the same around any contacts they have in the European OpenStack community who may have missed this thread.
So next steps - there's obviously a whole bunch of discussion to be had around logistics, format, organisation etc. which is probably not best placed on this list. Perhaps we can get an openstack-euoperators list on lists.openstack.org set up ? Can someone from the Foundation organise that for us ? It would also be great to have some input from the US folks to guide us on format and structure as we try and move this forward. Does that sound like a sensible first step ?
