A moderator must be identified at the time the BOFS is proposed. Rooms will be assigned based on the number of people who indicate an interest, or participants may find their own accommodations, perhaps at a nearby restaurant. During this session the participants will share tips on how to load test that helps testers increase their body of knowledge and get their job done. Participants are encouraged to bring their stories about things they measured, what they were trying to do with the measurement and what happened with their measurements. Come and join a constructive discussion of the possible roadblocks that might prevent SRE from working effectively in your area of interest and how the roadblocks might be overcome.

However, we need to expand our watch to include the systems we often take for granted in the facilities we use, including those we depend on in our personal lives.
