21:52:07 <rebelsky> Big takeway from new users session: OS is not like producing published papers.  You don't do all the work and submit it for acceptance/rejection.  "Release early, release often."
21:52:47 <rebelsky> Big takeaway from new users session: Importance of choosing students.
21:52:54 <rebelsky> Big takeway from new users session: Productively lost.
21:53:24 <rebelsky> Bit takeway from plenary: Make it attractive to work in the open.  Reward open behavior.
21:53:49 <rebelsky> Big takeaway from plenary: It takes awhile for the stuff to sink in.  (For students, for faculty.)  You need to repeat it.
21:55:03 <rebelsky> Big takeway from faculty barriers: An initiative to work together as peer mentors to encourage each other to get started and continue working on some project.
21:55:39 <rebelsky> Big takeaway from selecting projects: Know the community, think about how you should share knowledge with new groups of students.
21:56:38 <rebelsky> Big takeaway from tools/resources: Communities are an important tool: Online communities, like GitHub, meatspace communities like Barcamp.
21:57:21 <rebelsky> Big takeaway from Activities: Most of the lessons are "be a good learner".  Work harder.  You can't coast.  Default to open.  Think out loud  Your are one of many.
21:57:46 <rebelsky> Mel asks: What's next?
21:58:15 <rebelsky> Food.  (Dinner with interesting people at a good restaurant.  Yay!)
