I'm definitely happy to help as much as I can. If you'll have something set
up that I can call into (zoom, webex, bluejeans, hangout, whatever), I
definitely will. I could also read through etherpads you take notes in and
help summarize things into forum proposals.
Another thing to note is that whatever you/we submit, it doesn't have to be
award winning :) Its totally possible to change session descriptions and
edit who the speaker is later.
Other random thought, I know Sean McGinnis has attended a lot of the
Operators stuff in the past so maybe he could help narrow things down too?
Not to sign him up for more work, but I know he's written a forum propsal
or two in the past ;)
