**AOB/To Discuss**
* "We will continue to build the partnerships that enable us to develop knowledge we can't create ourselves." (from [[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2017/Direction|2017 Wikimedia Movement Strategy]]) -- how can outside people/organizations collaborate around the KaaS developments? Would it be a useful start to catalog other projects working in this area (esp. in the open source world) and then reach out to them? Or alternatively to have a unified point of contact (e.g. a Kaas Teahouse) for people to register interest here in a wiki style?
