I would be a little concerned with relying to heavily on FUDcon for such work, Fedora is a big project, many contributors spread across the globe, many of whom would probably like their voice heard or have ideas they wish to share. A lot of these people will not be able to go and partake in the talks for simple reasons of time and/or money. Most of the time we don't even get good video or audio of all the proceedings afterwards so it's hard to traceback what the rationale for a decision is or to see what other vistas were explored. As such I would be afraid a high reliance on FUDcon for this work would lead to a lack of transparency in our process. I would hate for this to become Moses coming down from the mountain carrying specs set in stone without accompanying notes.
Then don't call it a Summit. Call it an "opportunity for the RH Desktop team to talk with some number of the other Fedora people in order to further mutual understanding". :)
I think Paul's point is that if some amount of Fedora is going to be right in Red Hat's engineering backyard, where a lot of the RH Desktop team is, that is an opportunity that should be seized to do SOMETHING rather than ignored.
