KVM- and oVirt-related talks should be submitted at http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/kvm-forum/program/cfp before May 1. 14:59:15 There has been some discussion on the length of the oVirt Workshop track in this year's KVM Forum. Right now, it will be at least a full day, but if we get a bunch more oVirt sessions, then I can make the argument to try to expend the track's length. 14:59:38 CFP for All Things Open in Raleigh on Oct. 18-20. gshereme has expressed interest in doing a Workshop there. This would be a good, and could fill the need to do a Workshop in Dublin around LinuxCon EU. (Which, while ideally located, would be kinda pricey.)

Most of the content is coming across fine, with some overly complicated documents (such as ones with tables and footnotes) needing a little extra post-conversion work.
