5. Early thoughts about the program
   1. We do not need to depend only on volunteered sessions: we can commission things
   2. Should we have a theme for one or more tracks?
      1. In particular, we have had the suggestion that there should be a 'blue sky' strand that encourages people to look forward rather than just report back on things that have done.
   3. It was suggested after SC2018 that lightning talks might in future take place alongside the poster session.
   4. Need to be clear this year about the difference between presentations and panels and which a person is offering.
      
      
6. Any other business
   1. Can past year survey(s) be made available?  Yes, Richard to organize.
