[Jenkins-events] "Jenkins Workflow Summit" to go with JUC Bay Area?

[James Nord (jnord)]

Hi Kohsuke et al.

I'm defiantly interested in the workflow brainstorming/hacking/discussing etc. assuming I get travel approval.

Having something focused is easier to get approved rather than a generic unconference.
