I thought the purpose of the call was to rationalise the proposed
workshops into the 10/11 slots. Which I think we did. I don't recall the
discussion to cut the developer track... but I may have drifted off at
some point.

The software developer track at OGF19 was very diverse and generally
well attended - and gained a lot of interest. Why oh why do we now want
to loose all of this and return to the Globus/gLite Grid Forum model!!!!
