I still have some reservations about these, as I noted in my previous
mail, but at this point I don't have an alternative suggestion so I
guess +1 from me.

This should be pretty brief, unless someone else has done a bunch of
work on it that I'm not aware of.  Nothing has really changed on my end
since the blog post I made on this about a month ago.

Any one of these seems like a potential rabbit hole that could end up
taking the entire session.  I definitely think these are important
topics to discuss, but if we're going to try to fit them into one of the
sessions I think we need to be very, very clear about the scope of the
discussion.  With basically five topics in this session, each one has
less than 10 minutes available to it.  We're talking very brief
introduction and maybe a couple of questions here.
