Situation

Committed in #internal-resf-escalation to organizing a meeting next week to build an execution plan for the RESF day-of lockdown. Directed Sarah to invite Nathan, Max, Justin, and Dieter. Bjorn is finishing messaging drafts this weekend, so technical execution planning must be ready to match the communication track.

Reasoning

The RESF lockdown timeline is fixed at roughly 2 weeks. Bjorn is finishing messaging drafts this weekend. Legal and communication tracks are moving — the technical execution plan needs to be equally ready. Personally taking ownership of execution planning rather than delegating entirely because this is a high-stakes cross-functional operation requiring CTO-level coordination. Invite list is core Linux engineering leadership who will actually execute the technical lockdown.

Additional Context

Leigh Hennig asked about messaging drafts status. Bjorn confirmed he has drafts to finish this weekend. Existing todo 'Schedule RESF Day-1 war room with security team' already tracked this. Steve Wallace backfilling security role from Jason Lewis departure adds urgency to getting Steve looped into planning.
