Yes, I think that's probably true.  I get the impression cross-project
workshops are intended more for coordination of common topics between
many official big tent projects, whereas our topics typically involve
a small handful of projects, some of which are currently unofficial.

Right.  I'm looking forward to the new format :-)

OK thanks - I'll try to figure out the best way of following up on
these two points.  I see that

  https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Design_Summit/Ocata/Etherpads

is still empty, so I guess we're still on the early side of planning
for design summit tracks, which hopefully means there's still time
to propose a fishbowl session for Ops feedback on HA.

Thanks a lot for the advice!
Adam
