I'd go in a minute, I actually wanted to ask last week why no outsiders were being brought in for their ideas. You guys should look at doing the event before / after collaborate this year since there will be a good number of outside Oracle (customers, partners, bloggers, etc.) there already.
Honestly, is it any surprise that the collective Justin / Jake team "won".

Heh, I did bring in outsiders via the blog. As an invitee and outsider, I'm not in a position to dictate. Justin reads, so I'm sure he'll have feedback on the future and timing of an external version.
Push on Justin and Marius, I'm happy to do what I can.

Don't have to convince me. I love the idea and going to see how we can make it happen. I'm wondering what would work better; an Oracle run workshop style event where we invite our community to participate or a BarCamp style event(unconference) where we just provide the facilitates and let the session form organically. Open for feedback.

Matt, why do you assume they won? :) Out of six teams, the moderator had to pick 3 and he could not as the top five had the same score.

@Julio: The moderator said that teams 2-5 were separated by decimal places, and the only team with a clear advantage was ours. Of course, we were all winners.

We have already begun to "socialize" this idea and hope to make it a reality in the next few months. Credit to Jake for bringing it up!

Jake, can't believe the KC part of the story. Sounds like a very blonde moment for you!

@Meg: I float through life sometimes, too busy thinking the big thoughts. My story, sticking to it.
