Are you able to log into this LF_OpenvSwitch account? If not, who is? Linux Foundation never provided me the account details. And SlideShare/LinkedIn/Microsoft refuses to help.
Searching my email for the account name LF_OpenvSwitch, Cassandra RJ <creyesjo...@linuxfoundation.org> originally created the SlideShare. I remember there has been some turnover in Linux Foundation event management, but if Cassandra is still there then I guess I should have been talking to her the whole time!
