Apparently my other email address wasn't subscribed to the ML so resending.
Apologies to anyone that gets this twice...

That sounds fun, but should we really do this?

At past PTG's, it was a disruption for teams to put things on hold to quick run
down a couple floors to take a photo. I think it is worth the brief disruption
- something like this is definitely worthy of taking the time to have a photo
of the team.

But in those cases it was quick and fairly easy to context switch back to what
had been the topic before the break. Now, if we are going to need to leave the
building, wait for the photo, then walk back to the in to the venue, that
seems like it's going to be a longer disruption that would be a bigger context
switch and require more time to remember where things were before the break.

I'm fine doing it either way, but I have some concerns about how big of a
disruption this could now be.
