The OpenStack Program Committee formally announces the Call for Speakers/Topics for the April 26-29 OpenStack Conference/Design Summit in Santa Clara, CA at the Hyatt Regency.

TECHNICAL TRACK (1:00pm ? 4:30pm) This track focuses on various technology issues related to OpenStack and cloud computing in general.
