 +The release-2.3 branch should be largely stable -- just a matter of picking a convenient release date. On the call, we picked December 1 at the latest. Following the call, a calendar consultation revealed that 11/17 is actually a better date to have good coverage at VU to release the update.

 +Once again, the Summit was a success, with several interesting talks and a lot of free-form time to talk with new potential adopters and develop code with veterans. Several significant commits and pull requests came out of this event, and attendees seemed eager to return next year for more of the same.
