<div dir="ltr">A SF meet up would be much easier for me to attend. I could make the purposed dates of the 11th through the 13th.

By my informal count, it looks like we will have at most 5 of our 10 core reviewers in attendance. I don't think we should cancel based on that, but it does mean that we need to set our expectations accordingly.</div><div><br></div><div>Assuming that we will be lacking about half the core team, I think it will be more practical as a focused sprint, rather than a planning & design meeting. While that's a break from precedent, planning should be happening via the spec review process *anyway*. Also, we already have a larger back log of specs and work than we had this time last cycle, but with the same size review team. Rather than adding to our backlog, I would like us to use this gathering to burn through some specs and land some code.</div><div><br></div><div>That being said, I'd also like to put forth this idea: if we had a second gathering (with the same focus on writing code) the following week (let's say, Feb 11 - 13) in the SF Bay area -- who would attend? Would we be able to get the "other half" of the core team together and get more work done? Is this a good idea?<br></div><div><br></div><div>OK. That's enough of my musing for now... </div><div><br></div><div>Once again, if you will be attending the midcycle sprint in Grenoble the week of Feb 3rd, please sign up <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/openstack-ironic-kilo-midcycle-sprint-in-grenoble-tickets-15082886319" target="_blank">HERE</a>. </div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Devananda</div><div><br></div>
