Hi Doug,
It's not easy to plan/organize the CDT summit in the middle of summer for a date in Sept/Oct:
- many people are on vacation, it's hard to get developers to register;
- organizing the logistic in the middle of summer was not easy for us last year again because of many people on vacations and it was hard to get big conf room for
Sept;
- in July many people are already booked for business trips in the fall e.g. myself, Elena, Marc, etc. if know more in advanced it will be easier to plan around
the summit date;
- fall is a busy time of the year for many people, May/June is the Eclipse release crunch and March is EclipseCon...;
To get more developers to join the summit we could either:
- do the plan/organization after the Eclipse release and held the summit in Dec/Jan
- do the plan/org in May and held the summit in Sept/Oct
- looking back at last March EclipseCon we could investigate if we can do it Thursday and Friday (http://www.eclipsecon.org/2011/program/?programdate=2011-03-24)
- we could even investigate if we can do it together with the GCC summit (http://www.gccsummit.org)
Best Regards,
Dominique
