I think mini summit is no worse than the summit itself. Everyone who wants to participate can join. In fact what we really need is a certain time span of focused work. ML, meetings are ok, it's just that dedicated in person meetings (design sessions) could be more productive. I'm thinking what if such mini-summit is held in Atlanta 1-2-3 days prior to the OS summit? That could save attendees a lot of time/money.
Thanks, Eugene.
