[ofa-general] OpenFabrics Developer's Summit: tentative agenda

[Johann George]

Or,

Thanks for your feedback.  We can certainly expand, shorten and change
sessions around to maximize benefit for the attendees.

We are hoping that most attendees will stay for the entire summit.
Nevertheless, some people have early flights on Friday while others
have commitments that prevent them from attending several of the
sessions on Thursday.  Hopefully both these groups are a minority.

> maybe in the price of doing parallel sessions.

We usually get negative feedback with parallel sessions since
attendees inevitably run into conflicts.

I do agree that we would benefit from more discussion but it is near
impossible to pack all the topics in the time allotted.  What I am
hoping is that we can present the issues concisely during the sessions
and facilitate continued discussions afterwards.  Many members of the
community are unfamiliar with the details of the issues.

I can't wait. :-)

Seriously, thanks much for the feedback.  If the majority feel we
should move some sessions, we'll do our best to accommodate people's
schedules.
