I previously volunteered to facilitate this at the operators meet up and
given others have had to drop out, I discussed it with the ops meetup
leaders and will be facilitating a session with the interested operators on
Friday.
I know from previous discussions I’ve had, there was quite an interest in
the system level of scope access to be able to see everything across a
system, so I suspect there is tons of value there, but our developer
perception is obvious different if we’re questioning it at this point.
