  1. And OpenStack is...? by wonkey_monkey · · Score: 4, Informative

    (disclaimer: I already knew what OpenStack is)

    If you can't afford to waste the six extra words it would take to say "open-source cloud computing platform..." how about a Wikipedia link? It's what hypertext is for, after all.

    "Hurr, if you don't know what OpenStack is, you shouldn't be on Slashdot!"

    will no doubt be the refrain of some. Well, what's wrong with informing those who don't know? Or are we still supposed to jealously guard the Secret Knowledge?

    An inclusively written or well-linked summary is not an insult to anyone's intelligence or level of knowledge.
