If you could get back to me with an opinion, that would help hugely. Alternatively it would also be possible to use the space for more focused meetings with fewer people. In that case, I would need a number of suggestions for meetings including meeting leaders.

Some of the slots could be used to host the developer meeting, of desired.

That's why I asked. Maybe we can come up with a short list of topics that need to be discussed and are worthwhile for the developer meetings.
The idea behind using the Hackathon scheduling methodology for the parallel track is an experiment to make assigning of topics to space mor effective than in the past.
I don't have an opinion one way or another. We can have a developer meeting as well. Just shout and I will set it up.
