[CentOS-devel] [Cloud SIG] CloudStack publishing effort in CentOS

Hi Fabian,

Thanks for replying. Yes, I've reached out to the chair and others and also
also introduced ourselves at the #RDO meeting yesterday.

I've created a CentOS account and applied for the sig-cloud group as
advised [1] on the meeting.
My account id is 'rohit' with the email 'rohit at yadav.cloud'.

As next steps, we'll wait to be advised and hear about the Cloud SIG effort
being resumed.

Regards.
