Without at least one sponsor or at least provenpackager involved, I'm not sure this is going to be a positive experience for the participants. If people go to this event and cannot actually get their pet package added to Fedora as a result of participating, then they're going to be soured on the process. Now, an obvious follow-up question is whether we think there would be a sufficient return on investment to send one of the sponsors to this FAD (and whether to expend time and effort locating someone willing to go). https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/members/packager/*/spons or is a list of the current sponsors, and of course we could email the sponsors list looking for volunteers (preferably locally).
