Matt,
Good question. The PTG is definitely occurring in the Fall. We would
evaluate the value of it as a community based on feedback from the
PTG/Ops meetup, Board feedback, survey results, budget, etc... If it
was decided not to hold the PTG in 2019, we would of course need to
reevaluate at that time.
Let me know if I can answer any further questions.
Thanks,
Jimmy

Not to be too much of a downer here, but with the future of the PTG
survey I just took, does the ops community want to wait until that's
all sorted out? i.e. what happens if the future of the PTG means there
is no PTG, and it's all just munged together at the Forum, which is no
longer at the beginning of the cycle for vertical teams to plan their
release (like the old design summit) and is prohibitively expensive
for lowly devs and ops to attend? Would the ops community just want to
continue doing what they are doing?

Hello Everyone
You've probably see the thread about possibly combining ops meetups
with PTG to make a new broader event. Here is a rough draft of what
that would actually look like:
*"Monday and Tuesday are cross-project days where ops are welcome to
attend SIG and other discussions, and if not interested can be travel
days or whatever for them. Then Wed-Thurs are the two tracks/events
where the ops folks have what has traditionally been done for ops
meetups. Then Friday is a travel day or ops can stick around to follow
up with dev-side things
that they weren't able to get to over the week or wanted to follow up
on."*
Thanks to Sean McGinnis for proposing this to get the ball rolling.
This would mean there's a "normal" ops meetup for two days on days 3
and 4 of this combined event, with the option of attending earlier
(days 1 and 2) if you want to contribute to dev/ops/openstack
community sessions (e.g. SIGs), and possibly also staying a 5th day.
The event is currently pencilled in for September in a central part of
the USA. It will be organized by the Foundation logistically but the
various sub-groups own their technical agendas.
We unfortunately forgot to record the chat as a formal meeting, but
you can see the raw IRC chat here

With the current level of support for this idea, it looks likely to
happen, but, particularly if you object, please speak up ASAP. Note
that this would be instead of the tentative idea we had of an event in
NYC in August. If this is welcomed by the operators community, I'll
certainly try to swap the sponsorship from my employer over to this as
I feel it will be even more valuable and initial feedback from other
potential sponsors is favorable.
Please make your voice heard on this issue!
Chris
