OpenShift is an open source PaaS with much investment from RedHat. I know
some folks from the OpenShift team. You could probably attract one or two
of them to talk to the LUG. If y'all were running a LUG instance of
OpenShift, a couple members might gain experience that RedHat would want to
hire. https://www.openshift.org

How much time do you have in the char term?

Hi Warren,
Could you please clarify what you mean by char term? I don't quite follow.
Sorry for the response delay, things have been rather hectic for me as of
late.

I was trying to make a lousy pun off the server names (short and char)
related to "short term".
It may have worked better in a non-text-only delivery :)

What do you mean by how much time do we have in the short term?
