Me too: 6 and/or 18. Ideally 6 AND 18, because we need to get off the ground quickly, IMHO. 

And I like Paul's strong problem/solution/$ driven discussion suggestion  :-)

I can make any of these, assuming they are 1 hour in duration.

I would like to see presentations/etc. along the lines of...

"I saved $Xm per year by using Grid management technology Y" by CIO of Z

"We can get a new application to market in X days from conception thanks to....".CTO of A

"I solved problem B by using C...." and so forth.

In essence I think we definitely need a problem/solution/$ driven discussion.  Of course the technology is sexy, but if we are to get interest we have to attach the discussion to the top or bottom line in some way.

Just me two shiny new pence.

I also like the 6th and will also think further about the speakers. I've got a list to go through of good candidates. ~Brooklin

Dear PC member,

I have subscribed everyone who agreed to join the industry PC to this OGF20 PC mailing list.  The next steps are to arrange the first telcons of this subgroup and to request input.

No doubt it will be difficult to get all of us on a telcon at short notice, so I'm offerring a choice of times; we'll go with the one that most people can make.  If you are on the industry sub-group (i.e. I explicitly invited to join earlier in the month), please let me know which of the following slots you can attend:

Friday 6th October:  8am PDT / 10am CDT / 11am EDT / 4pm BST / 5pm CST

Monday 9th October:  8am PDT / 10am CDT / 11am EDT / 4pm BST / 5pm CST

Wednesday 18th October:  8am PDT / 10am CDT / 11am EDT / 4pm BST / 5pm CST

Wednesday 18th October:  9am PDT / 11am CDT / 12am EDT / 5pm BST / 6pm CST

In addition, please propose keynote speakers, speakers (or projects) for sessions, topics for panels, etc.  We should also consider this from the demand side - if we aim to spread the Grid news to a broader audience, who would IT managers, CIOs and budding entrepeneurs like to hear?  I'll collate suggestions but if you have a topic that merits broader discussion, feel free to mail the list.

Note that this mailing list will eventually include everyone on the PC, including all sub-groups.

Best wishes,
