Hey everyone, as we get closer to the Meta-hosted core sprint (September 23-27 at Bellevue), I have some followups 
- First thing, the registration is closed. If you are attending, you should have received an email from me with confirmation and a private Google Doc with all the details. If you didn’t receive that email, please DM me here or on Discord!
- Speaking of Discord, make sure you’re on the sprint channel on the core dev server (link in the Google Doc), which we are using for ad-hoc / sync comms.
- Hopefully by now you have your travel and accommodation plans in order
- Please review the details Google Doc and bookmark it for easy reference.
- Expect an email from Meta’s visitor system 1-2 days before the event – you will need it to get your guest lanyard. If you want to get it via a different email from the one you used to RSVP - please let me know.
- If you are planning to attend the Thursday dinner, please submit the “dinner form” (link in the Google Doc and the sprint channel on Discord) by the end of August.
Agenda, Content, and Additional Organization
Since this is a sprint, we don’t really need too much scheduled agenda (right?). What we do have on the schedule so far includes a Monday morning welcome (mostly going over logistics), SC Q&A and group photo (Tuesday afternoon), a happy hour, and a nice dinner.
If you are attending, and you’d like to give a talk or a presentation - we can schedule that! I suggest adding your talk pitch as a comment on this thread (or a new thread if you want to use it for further discussion).
In addition to the main big conference room, we will have several small breakout rooms (for 2-8 people/room). They could be used ad-hoc / on-demand for whatever.
Beyond that – I’m assuming throwing ~40 core devs together in a room for a week with no structure would produce great results having said that – do you think we should have more structure? scheduled blocks? planned breakout sessions or group discussions? recording of a podcast episode? residents office hours?
Consider this an invitation to share your thoughts and/or volunteer to take on organizing something.
