I've changed things around with the backchan as per Alex's suggestion: Did you want to use backchan.nl with one page where people could submit > ideas and vote on them?
To make participation/voting easier, we should just put all of our ideas in one place: *http://backchan.nl/meetings/view/2355*<http://backchan.nl/meetings/view/2355>. Also, I really appreciated Rich's feedback on how we can shape this year's SFC summit. I think this should be something that people can think about when people pitch their ideas. I'm definitely going to mull over this as well as I brainstorm.
