<p class="MsoNormal">I second. This is a hands on activity requiring post-its and in-depth conversations. If we had a couple days we could also work on summit preparation in general.<br>
<br>
Rackspace is happy to host. For people not within driving distance (I don’t consider Colorado driving distance), can you ask your managers if they’d reimburse travel expenses? I'll see what Rackspace can do - I’m sure at the very least they’ll feed us :)<br>
