Hi everyone,
Fully agree. This is the first ODL summit I attend and despite being a great 
event I feel like I missed many interesting presentations and forums due to a 
bit of overlapping sessions. It is also true that I can watch them in youtube 
when they are published but it is not the same than attending physically at the 
event.

Best Regards,
Miguel Ángel.

future ODL summits

Hi Colin,

I can share my opinion; I would like to see the whole week being used.
If I’m travelling half way around the world for an event I do want to make the 
most of the time I spend there, compressing things is not necessarily the best 
way to attract a global audience.  The people you want to be there on the DDF 
are less likely to be worried about not travelling on the Friday that those who 
are focused on networking or sales.

I have found for example that when I have a set of objectives at OpenStack 
related to code/projects that Friday is a day of much progress and engagement. 
The people who generally remain there on the Thursday & especially Friday are 
there to get s#%&f done which can be a great way to top off what tends to 
otherwise feel like a networking event.

Cheers,
                Chris

Subject: [OpenDaylight TSC] schedule structure for future ODL summits

At the last TSC meeting, we spent a lot of time going over what we liked and 
didn't like about how the summit was structured. See bullet 2 here:
https://meetings.opendaylight.org/opendaylight-meeting/2016/opendaylight_tsc/opendaylight-meeting-opendaylight_tsc.2016-09-29-15.03.html
Some of the ideas/concerns were:
* In the past, nobody stayed for Friday
* We can't have community volunteers run tutorials on Sunday, so they have to 
be on Monday
* That forces us into a 3-day event, which is *really* compressed if it's a 
Summit and DDF
* OpenStack apparently had the problem with people leaving on Friday, but that 
got better over time
* In the future, we're likely to co-locate the summit with some other 
projects/events to cut down on conference fatigue and try to get more 
cross-pollination
Feel free to chime in here with ideas, suggestions, tomatoes, etc.
Cheers,
--Colin
