[Scale-planning] UpSCALE Talks

[Ilan Rabinovitch]

I think thats the link that started this thread. Jason/Hannah/I had
collaborated on the announcement there.
The concern you, Lan and Ken had raised was that it linked to the CFP which
didn't mention UpSCALE instructions specifically.

I was hoping for specific edits or feedback on how we can address your
concerns on the CFP page being confusing.
