Not a silly idea at all, on the contrary. I have fond memories of the
Commons meeting in Paris where the techies and the non-techies sat
together and made things go forward. So please, go ahead in organizing
this, I think it's a great and potentially extremely interesting
opportunity to make sure that the contributors feel "heard" by the
developper community and vice-versa.
