 Okay, so the first big question is why do you keep coming back to the OpenStack Summit? Because OpenStack is f***ing awesome! The OpenStack Summit is really unique because the entire community comes together from all over the world. People from 60 countries, people from hundreds of companies, and they come together to collaborate about what to build in OpenStack, how to deploy it, and where we need to take the software in the community. Austrian Institute is the basics that someone needs to know when it comes to participate in the OpenStack community. They are learning how the different tools are working, what are the best practices of using these tools, and how an open source community works, even if they don't have experience with open source from earlier. The marketplace is like a showcase. It showcases the people who are working on OpenStack. You can walk around the different vendor booths and try to figure out what products they sell, and you can have interactive conversation with the people there about your own experiences, how you have your own clouds, or how you can use their products in your cloud, and things like that. The forum is where we discuss the future of the OpenStack software in a cross-community manner. We don't do design behind closed doors. We're really into including as many people as we can, and the forum is where we achieve that promise. Essentially, we used to have two separate events for developers and operators called the Ops Summit and the Design Summit. The forum is basically a way of us fulfilling our role of ensuring communication is happening between all involved parties. If you work on a project just inside your company, everyone kind of thinks the same way, but when you come to an OpenStack summit, you may build for one use case, and then someone shows up and say, hey, we use that for something completely different. It's so awesome to be able to hear that not only your stuff is being used, but that it's being used for a use case you never thought about. There are very few women that are in technology in general, and there are even less black women. To know that we're out there and that we're into like seriously technical things, it's empowering. So Women of OpenStack is our advocacy group for women and their allies to come in to meet, to network throughout the summit week. They'll be telling you who's here, who's there to find the resources and feel empowered to stay in the community and keep contributing. That's a lot of loose. I barely use my laptop when I'm at the summit. That's not what I'm there for. If I'm in the Design Session and I need to code something, well, I'll find a moment and I'll stay just one hour, whatever, and do whatever I have to do on my laptop. But I spend most of my time talking to people. Whenever it comes to deciding whether I will talk to someone or attend a session, I usually talk to someone. Don't take your computer. Like take some paper, some pen, take notes, but don't spend time on your emails and stuff. Focus your few days on talking with people and working with them. Software is hard and people, if you get to know the people, then software becomes easier. This is a place where there are many people who are like you, so get to know people, build your network and make friends.
