I still have to experiment the Sphere content, but considering the low interest I usually have for 80% of the summit content, I am not expecting much.
One of the main issues with the Summit is that most politicaly oriented discussions or actual interesting stuff often gets either :
1) mingled in the usual *hugs* *kiss* *hugs* chit chat
2) out of control, so gets moderated
I do not see a rational reason to expect better of non moderated channel, except that 2) will continue to get out of control instead of getting back to the usual *hugs* *kiss* *hugs* chit chat.
The issue is not the summit, it's the overall quality of the content, as Mercy said.
