[tlug] Wakame Users Group 002

[Andreas Kieckens <adgkieckens@example.com>]

Hi all

I know this is very short notice but I just wanted to inform everyone that this Friday (October 25th) the second Wakame Users Group meeting is taking place. Last time we had some people from TLUG over and I figured some of you might be interested this time too.

WUG is a more or less similar group to TLUG. We're an informal group that has technical talks followed by a nomikai. Our topics are IaaS, virtualization and open source projects related to it. As the name implies, we focus on our own open source IaaS system (Wakame-vdc) but any virtualization talk is welcome.

For this meeting we'll be talking about a new open source project we're releasing called OpenVNet. This thing does full network virtualization using openvswitch and openflow. More details below.
