OK, so far I believe I've heard concrete suggestions from identified
(or fairly well identified :-) stuckees willing to organize
mini-summits for:

* ARM
* Media
* PCI
* memcg

I may have missed some, so if people could send a message to the
discuss list with [MINI-SUMMIT] in the subbject line and the name of
the proposed mini-summit, that would be really helpful.  Please
indicate whether you are volunteering to help organize the proposed
mini-summit, or identify someone you think can be volunteered.  :-)

Things that we will be asking the mini-summit chars to determine, in
addition to who should be given invites for Tuesday and Wednesday is
an estimate of how much time you need, and a list of sub-topics (and
who might lead the sub-topic discussion).  We will be asking you to
create a fairly well-defined schedule, with 30 and 60 minute slots, so
that we can publish a schedule and so that people who might need to
hop between mini-summits, have a chance to do so.  So please start
thinking about how long each of your sub-topics will need to be, and
who might be needed for a particular sub-topic's discussion to be
successful.  There may be a number of developers, with fingers in
multiple subsystem, where scheduling may become a bit of a challenge.

Thanks!!
