A-ha, OK. Will the subset of projects allocated a pod be fixed, or will the pod space float between projects as the week progresses? (for example, it's unlikely that a project will be using its pod space when its design session track is in-progress, so the pod could be passed on to another project) Cheers, Eoghan > The Friday setup also allows for more room (rather than a small > roundtable) since we can reuse regular rooms (and maybe split them up). > > It appears on the schedule as a specific set of hours where contributors > on a given program gather, so it's easier to reach critical mass. > > Finally for projects like Nova, which had regular sessions all the days. > I also like having them all on the last day so that you can react to > previous sessions and discuss useful stuff. > > If that makes you feel more comfortable, you can think of it as a > pod-only day, with a bit more publicity, larger pods and where we use > all the summit space available for pods :) > > -- > Thierry Carrez (ttx) > > _______________________________________________ > OpenStack-dev mailing list > OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev > _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
