We're pleased to announce the CloudStack Collaboration Conference North Ame=
rica 2013!

After a successful first run in Las Vegas, we're bringing back the CloudSta=
ck Collaboration Conference<http://cloudstackcollab.org/> for 2013! This ti=
me we're gathering the community in Santa Clara, California from Sunday Jun=
e 23rd through Tuesday June 25th.

There's a lot going on in the Apache CloudStack community, and you won't wa=
nt to miss the opportunity to catch up with the developers that are moving =
CloudStack forward, users who have successfully built production clouds, an=
d integrators who are helping build a healthy ecosystem around the open fou=
ndation of Apache CloudStack. The conference is your opportunity to exchang=
e ideas, discuss plans for Apache CloudStack, learn how others are using it=
, and to participate in workshops and sprints about CloudStack.

We will, of course, be having some quality fun time help the community get =
to know one another and offset all the hard work we've been doing to move t=
he Apache CloudStack project to a top-level project and get the 4.1.0 relea=
se close to shipping.
