The summits are just another tool for collaboration. Plenty of
discussion and coding is done via list interaction.

The problem isn't how the collaboration is done. The problem is having
people to design and code things up. :-)
Otherwise talk is just that - talk.

So, someone come up with a few examples of how to better implement the
network device producer/consumer model and get back to me/us about it.
