Hi everyone, I've been thinking about what changes we can bring to the Design Summit format to make it more productive. I've heard the feedback from the mid-cycle meetups and would like to apply some of those ideas for Paris, within the constraints we have (already booked space and time).

Am I missing some compelling advantage of moving all these emergent project-specific meetups to the Friday? One is that due to space limitations, we won't have nearly as many pods as in Atlanta (more like half or a third of them). Without one pod per program, the model breaks a bit.

One of the outcomes from Juno will be horizontal scalability in the central agent and alarm evaluator via partitioning[1]. The compute agent will get the same capability if you choose to use it, but it doesn't make quite as much sense. I haven't investigated the alarm evaluator side

Additional cross-project resources can be ponied up by the large contributor companies, and existing cross-project resources are not necessarily divertable on command. Sure additional cross-project resources can and need to be ponied up, but I am doubtful that will be enough.

One thing I'm not seeing shine through in this discussion of slots is whether any notion of individual cores, or small subsets of the core team with aligned interests, can champion blueprints that they have a particular interest in. I think that's because we've focussed in this

At the end of the day, that's probably going to mean saying No to more things. Everytime I turn around everyone wants the TC to say No to things, just not to their particular thing. :) Which is human nature. But I think if we don't start saying No to more things we're going to end up
