  Would this be absolute basics or at least a bit advanced. I would attend if we are going to come out knowing enough to contribute back like Haris said. Not just an 'idea' about OpenStack.

  If I can come out of this workshop knowing enough to contribute back to the project, then I'm in! Are there any software requirements we should satisfy before attending this session?
