I would certainly advocate putting up stable endpoints which 
may be accessed outside of a 'fest', especially given the 
higher level of configuration often required for async testing. 
However this could be too high a bar for participants wanting 
to run software on their laptops during the workshop.

I think that would be for us as a working group to decide.

I'd imagine we'd solicit, agree upon and then specify a set 
of test scenarios which could be then implemented by those wanting
to participate. We also have to decide which of the tests to use 
for our exit criteria from CR.
