Exactly.  Just as any other serious operations activity does.

That we use "volunteers" is frankly misleading.  We use experienced 
professionals. If they do not get the support they need, it is not for lack of 
availability.  And, in this case, we used a familiar venue in which things have 
worked well in the past.

So, this is not about basic skills or basic venue problems or basic issues with 
the technology.

This is about a mindset and an organizational approach that does not leave 
those volunteers out on a limb with fragile equipment, or insufficient 
resources. It is about our approaching this as a utility service and ensuring 
that that is what is delivered.

Every time.
