I can definitely see the value in this, but it's somewhat saddening if ApacheCon as a conference would no longer exist :-/. But, if it’s not a viable Conference, we should stop wasting our time / money... BarCamp and project Summits are great, we do 2 every year in my primary projects. In an ideal world, I’d still like to see an ApacheCon with a 3 or 4 days program: * 1-2 days of BarCamp / Project Summits, at the conference location, sponsored for any projects who wants to organize one. I’m OK with requiring an ApacheCon registration go participate here. * 2 days of a topic based, 2-track Apache related conference. I would strongly encourage that we broaden the horizon here, such that a talk would not necessarily need to be specific to one (or a few). Almost everyone is using at least one Apache Project for any solution they made, and I think it’d be interesting to learn more about how ASF projects are used together with other projects for example.
