Renaming Xen Project Hackathons

Renaming Xen Project Hackathons

Hi all,

one piece of feedback we got at the last and this Hackathon, was that the name for the event is really misleading. Although some Hacking goes on, in reality the event is really more of an Architecture, Design and Deployment Summit. There was some discussion about this topic last year, (see http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/publicity/2015-05/msg00000.html <http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/publicity/2015-05/msg00000.html>), but we didn't come to a conclusion then.

The current proposal is to Rename the Xen Project Hackathons to either
a) Xen Project Architecture & Design Summit, 
b) or Xen Project Design Summit

A number of people voted already for b) on http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/publicity/2015-05/msg00000.html <http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/publicity/2015-05/msg00000.html>. As the audience on the publicity list is relatively small, I wanted to get feedback from everyone. I don't think a formal vote is required. Feel free to voice your opinion.

Best Regards
Lars

"hackathons" ^^):

b) is a good choice and I think it reflects more the content of the event (
-> a) is even more self-explanatory, but it's a bit long IMHO)

Olivier.

IMO (b) is a better than (a), and both are better than "hackathon".
I'm not a fan of the grade inflation that makes every meeting a
"summit" these days, but I suspect that just makes me a grouchy old
man. :)

Cheers,

Tim.

Well, why not "Xen Project Design Meeting" then? :-P
