The venue has capacity for 60ish persons and we have key contributing technology vendors Rackspace, Dell, Citrix, Cisco and F5 coming along, each presenting a short overview of their involvement in the project. The event is sponsored with food and drinks by our company Aptira and we are trying to attract persons that have an active technical interest in the technology in an effort to collectively grow the local community. This event will be followed by one in Melbourne in mid January. If you wish to attend please contact me directly to arrange some spots asap, or RSVP to the meetup group at <a href="http://aosug.openstack.org.au">http://aosug.openstack.org.au</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt'>Cheers<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt'>Kavit<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'><hr size=2 width="100%" align=center></span></div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'>Kavit Munshi<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'>Solutions Director<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'><img border=0 width=110 height=65 id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image001.jpg@01CCB3F7.05A894D0" alt="Description: Description: Description: APTlogoonwhite-small.jpg"></span></b><b><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'>Aptira Pty Ltd<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'>1800 APTIRA<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://aptira.com/"><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'>http://aptira.com</span></a><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-IN'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
