Hrm, this is pretty radically different from the proposed schedule that we've
discussed for the past 3 weeks on the planning calls. I'm personally not
convinced it's focused enough to be productive, though I'd like to try and
incorporate some of the ideas you've spawned.

Stephen Hahn also suggested that the Installation & Packaging tracks be merged
too since there's a lot of overlap both in technology and stakeholders. The
intent of Saturday was to focus on 3 main issues (Installation, Packaging and
Modernization), and provide opportunities for more focused breakouts based on
those topics. Sunday was very much planned to be more focused on the social
aspect (release engineering, governance, website, arc, barriers to entry).

I'm not going to change over the schedule point blank until I can be convinced
otherwise though - we're only just over a week away, and I don't want to turn a
full circle.
