I would love to see the OpenStack contributor community take back the design
summit to its original format and purpose and decouple it from the OpenStack
Summit's conference portion.
I believe the design summits should be organized by the OpenStack
contributor community, not the OpenStack Foundation and its marketing and
event planning staff.
As someone who spent years organizing PyCon as a volunteer from the
Python community, with four of those years in a row taking about 8
solid months of pre-conference effort, not to mention the on-site
effort to run a volunteer conference of that size [0]...I would
suggest even longer and harder thought before stretching a community
like this even more thinly. Things should change, but probably not the
"who's doing the work" aspect.
Beyond stretching out the community, we would end up with the same
problem we are trying to solve. Most of the cross-project folks that
would end up organizing the event would be too busy organizing the event
to be able to fully participate in it.
