Just a process question.

I submitted a presentation for the normal marketing blitz part of the summit which wasn't accepted (I'm still dealing with this emotionally, btw...) If there's anything I can do... but when I look at the CFP link for Forum topics, my thing shows up there as "Received" so does that mean my non-Forum-at-all submission is now automatically a candidate for the Forum because that would not be my intended audience (only suits and big wigs please). Forum Submissions would be considered separate and non-Forum submissions will not be considered for the Forum. The submission process is based on

Good question. the track you submit to and, in the case of the Forum, we separate this track out from the rest of the submission process. If you think there is still something funky, send me a note via speakersupport@openstack.org or jimmy@openstack.org and I'll work through it with you. Cheers, Jimmy
