The OpenDaylight Project is hosting its first OpenDaylight Mini-Summit on September 18th, 2013 co-located with CloudOpen and LinuxCon in New Orleans. It’s an opportunity to get a first glimpse of the OpenDaylight architecture being built by the community, and to engage developers and project leaders in discussions about implementations, deployments and how to get involved.

OpenDaylight is an open source software project focused on advancing Software-Defined Networking (SDN). This is the first blog in a series that profiles the people who are contributing to the project.

Brent Salisbury works as a network architect and software hacker with over 15 years of IT experience in large enterprise, healthcare and regional provider networks.
