This is an awesome and elegant workaround. We'll do this. Let's meet on Sunday afternoon at Rackspace SF to complete this task. Let me know if you want to join.

Each track leader can decide how to use it (for IRC or something else). Since you are already familiar with UDS setup, would you mind setting up the IRC channels for each of the rooms at the summit?

That's a really good point. In the post-conference conversations that deal with attendance policy, this should be kept in mind. In lieu of not being able to attend in person, keep in mind the live-casting that will be done, in combination with IRC channels. When I led tracks at Ubuntu Developer Summits, we were able to keep remote attendees closely in the loop. As non-optimal as this may be, we can still work hard to get the best out of it. I'm not sure it the Design Summit will be projecting IRC chat on a screen for each session (like is done at UDS); at the very least, I can make sure I'm on Freenode and can act as a proxy -- ensuring any questions or concerns from IRC get audibly voiced and become part of the conversation. I will be attending all of the DevOps (and related) sessions, as long as they don't conflict.

Re: [Openstack] [Openstack-operators] Health & Monitoring Blueprints
Problem of course is many operators aren't on the design summit contributor list ( ala don't have codes to get into it ) and if it's later it's 500 USD to attend. Maybe not the best means of collaborating on something that effects them deeply. Pondering that. -Matt On Wed, Apr 11, 2012 at 1:43 PM, Duncan McGreggor wrote: > Resharing with the Operators list... > > d > > On Wed, Apr 11, 2012 at 4:33 PM, Wilkinson, Lyle > wrote: >> Hi folks, >> >> >> >> We’ve created a set of 3 blueprints on the topics of health and monitoring, >> metrics data collection, and cloud inventory maintenance. >> >> >> >> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/resource-monitor-alerts-and-notifications >> >> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/utilizationdata >> >> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/cloud-inventory-manager >> >> >> >> We’re hoping to discuss these at the design summit next week, but currently >> don’t know if they’ll be part of an existing session or covered in a >> separate session in one of the open space.
