What I meant with regard to the hat summit is that this is the type of
topic that would, at least in my opinion, shorten turnaround time by
having everyone in the same room.

For the immediate issue at hand, I think it makes more sense for
everyone that will be attending BSDCan 2015 to plan to have a day with
nothing else scheduled.  I did not mean we should have a hat summit to
finish what should have been done months ago.

The last thing we need right now is to be distracted with more time
consuming matters.
