This is the schedule for the Kilo Design Summit, where OpenStack contributors discuss the future of OpenStack development. Click here for the main OpenStack Summit conference schedule.
Every survey, the user committee compiles a list of the top pain points in using OpenStack. Come and see what they are, and let's work together to make a plan to get them fixed to they don't come up again next time!
Don't agree with the pain points listed? Add you own on the etherpad link!

Isn't logging in OpenStack annoying? If you don't have debug on, you can't get what you need. Even with debug off, there's too many irrelevant messages. The format isn't consistent between services, and logs are diffcult to trace.
So add your pet hates on the etherpad and let's fix this!
