“IBM is the #3 contributor to OpenStack. We’re proud of our people and we are proud of our commits. But you know what’s more impressive? What’s more impressive is who is #1. Do you know who #1 is? The individual contributor is still #1. That matters.” –David Lindquist, IBM; Session: OpenStack is Rockin’ the Open Cloud Movement! Who’s Next to Join the Band?
