Hard to pin this one on the foundation. The way the event is
designed and organized is based on feedback and recommendations from
our community over the past several years, so in this case it seems
they're just trying to give us what we said we wanted.

Of course, to your point, it does still make a statement about
developer identity and how we may collectively view ourselves (that
we just wanted easier cross-project interaction but not a fully
cross-project event).
