Alasdair,
I will work something out with Itamar to share the load.

Can you clarify whether this means that Thierry's proposal is also
included, i.e. have 3 proposals been merged? Mine, Thierry's and
Itamar's?
So I guess the next step is to set up a CfP, combined description
and decide who does what. Can we have an IRC sync up next week?
Also, who will be at LinuxCon/CloudOpen EU? Maybe we can tie down
all lose ends by then.
Also Rudolf Streif from the Linux Foundation had a great
suggestion (see below). It is certainly true that this year
virtualization is pushing into new areas reflecting what is
happening in the Linux community at large: at least I am seeing
activity in many different "embedded areas" (automotive, network
gear, mobile, fault tolerance in space "exploration" applications,
and others). I'd be happy to include this into a CfP and track
description, unless somebody objects.
Maybe we can have a low level virt day and an IAAS day? Although
we can leave the exact structure open and decide based on
proposals coming in.
Regards
Lars

I would like to see the embedded and OpenStack communities join
into a discussion as "virtualization is not just for servers
anymore." FOSDEM could be a good place since it is for open source
communities in general and not like the typical embedded events
where you would normally hardly find any virtualization folks or
the cloud events where there are hardly any embedded engineers.

I would suggest you issue a single Call for Papers, then decide on the
best time allocation once you've received the responses.
This year we are asking devrooms to use pentabarf for the talk
submissions to make the programme production easier, so we need to give
one or two of you access to that system.
Which of you should that be?
You can also have a fosdem.org mailing list for organising the devroom
if you wish.
