Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Let’s talk about your background, as well as the team as Ferymon, as you all have some experience building application platforms.

Topic 2 - Before we get into Fermyon, let’s talk about WebAssembly. What is it, and how does it connect to your previous world of being heavily involved in containers and Kubernetes?

Topic 3 - Let’s talk about what it means to be a WebAssembly PaaS. We’ve seen PaaS platforms in the past (Deis, Heroku, dotCloud, Cloud Foundry, OpenShift, etc.). What do developers need to do, and what does the platform take care of?

Topic 4 - Walk us through the Spin project and what it delivers? Can it be compared/contrasted to a container experience, or something else developers are familiar with?

Topic 5 - What are some of the unique capabilities and use-cases where WebAssembly is a good fit and delivers unique value today?

Topic 6 - How are people able to engage with Fermyon today?
