The big thing on my mind is the relationships between fg-pdx and
fg-startups/franchises - what is desirable on either end, what's
practical/impractical to expect.  Franchise already appears to improve
on some of the vagaries of the startup effort, and obviously there's a
lot to think about, but i think realistic expectations are kinda
crrrucial.

Also interesting to me is the issue of how intergalactic might evolve,
and especially how the process will impact portland.  Hmm, not next
year, but later on, Intergalactic will be bigger than OSCON, right?
