Thanks for updating the etherpad.

The developers are already trying to get funding to the PTG and the summit (if they are lucky), and throwing in a third travel venue is tough, especially with little to no direct advance notice. Please ping us in IRC or direct email, or put it on the weekly nova meeting agenda as a reminder. Then we can try and get someone there if possible.

Great, thanks. I think the cells v2 session at the MIL ops meet up was somewhat special as none of the attendees (except for me) was
using cells v1, and only one site was already on Mitaka and had hence seen the first signs of v2 in its deployment. So, while these session
live from people sharing their experience, this one was more on the concept of cells and their advantages in general and then some theory
about v2 that I had prepared reading through release notes. That’s where I thought that for changes that are are 2 or 3 releases away for most
operators but that will be mandatory, a developer would be in much better position to give that overview and answer specific questions than I
was. This is of course not limited to nova, and I gave that feedback to Melvin as well for future ops meet-ups. 

Maybe it was simply a little too early for a cells v2 session :-)

As you probably saw on the etherpad, there is interest from the operators’ side in a discussion in Boston about cells v2, would be great if
we could make this happen.

Cheers,
 Arne
