Tracks

Two tracks, one hallway. Platform is Room A (APIs, versioning, the boring parts that pay the bills). Reliability is Room B (incidents, on-call, the boring parts that keep the lights on). Workshops after lunch are cap-24 — pick at the board by 12:40.

Quiet room on 2. Pronoun stickers at badge pickup. Recordings go out Thursday; Chatham House for the 1:15 closed workshop.

Speakers
Kim Okafor
Keynote

Shipped the v3 API, then spent a year undoing the parts that hurt. Talks about cuts, not slides.

Ravi Mehta
Platform

Owns versioning. Will argue that deprecation is a product decision.

Adele Nguyen
Reliability

Wrote the postmortem template the rest of us actually fill in.
