[Ben Bromhead]

I like Jon's idea, plenty of food for thought in terms of a 4.0
retrospective + what's on the future.

[sankalp kohli]

Another thing to  discuss will be how to improve testing further from the
learning of finding bugs in C* 4.0.

Re: NGCC 2018?

[Jason Brown]

+1 to Jon's sentiment. Further, perhaps we should use that time after
GA'ing 4.0 to poll our users what they need/want from the next major
release of the database.

Re: NGCC 2018?

[Jonathan Haddad]

I'm thinking a month or two after 4.0 would give us time to unwind after
the release and start to give real thought to big changes coming in the
next release.  Let's focus on one thing at a time.

Re: NGCC 2018?

Are we going to have a dev event next month? Or anything this year? We may
also be able to provide space in bay area and help to organize it. (Please
let us know, so we could get final approval for that).

Re: NGCC 2018?

[Jonathan Haddad]

My interpretation of Nate's statement was that since there would be a bunch
of us at Lynn's event, we might as well do NGCC at the same time.

[Ben Bromhead]

It sounds like there may be an appetite for something, but the NGCC in its
current format is likely to not be that useful?

Is a bay area event focused on C* developers something that is interesting
for the broader dev community? In whatever format that may be?

Re: NGCC 2018?

[Nate McCall]

This was discussed amongst the PMC recently. We did not come to a
conclusion and there were not terribly strong feelings either way.

I don't feel like we need to hustle to get "NGCC" in place,
particularly given our decided focus on 4.0. However, that should not
stop us from doing an additional 'c* developer' event in sept. to
coincide with distributed data summit.

Re: NGCC 2018?

[Ben Bromhead]

That was a factor in our thinking and my suggested timing/city, but as you
know such an event is more than just space in a conference room :)

[Patrick McFadin]

Ben,

Lynn Bender had offered a space the day before Distributed Data Summit in
September (http://distributeddatasummit.com/) since we are both platinum
sponsors. I thought he and Nate had talked about that being a good place
for NGCC since many of us will be in town already.

Nate, now that I've spoken for you, you can clarify, :D

Re: NGCC 2018?

[Jeff Beck]

I am an organizer with a conference (GR8Conf US) here in Minneapolis I
would be happy to assist with organizing and we also have recording
equipment to support up to 3 tracks. We operate under a non profit already
if we need a legal entity.

If it is the bay area I we can't help much with space but we have contacts
here if there is any desire to have it in the midwest.

NGCC 2018?

[Ben Bromhead]

The year has gotten away from us a little bit, but now is as good a time as
any to put out a general call for interest in an NGCC this year.

Last year Gary and Eric did an awesome job organizing it in San Antonio.
This year it might be a good idea to do it in another city?

We at Instaclustr are happy to sponsor/organize/run it, but ultimately this
is a community event and we only want to do it if there is a strong desire
to attend from the community and it meets the wider needs.

Here are a few thoughts we have had in no particular order:

   - I was thinking it might be worth doing it in SF/Bay Area around the
   dates of distributed data day (14th of September) as I know a number of
   folks will be in town for it.
   - Typically NGCC has focused on being a single day, single track
   conference with scheduled sessions and an unconference set of ad-hoc talks
   at the end. It may make sense to change this up given the pending freeze
   (maybe make this more like a commit/review fest)? Or keep it in the same
   format but focus on the 4.0 work at hand.
   - Any community members who want to get involved again in the more
   organizational side of it (Gary, Eric)?
   - Any other sponsors (doesn't have to be monetary, can be space,
   resource etc) who want to get involved?

If folks are generally happy with the end approach we'll post details as
soon as possible (given its July right now)!
