I sent a message asking for a bit more in-depth feedback, we
will see how that turns out!
I suspect it is like any decision making process where there
are N
places for M applications and N << M, many get culled by fairly
arbitrary criteria simply to get the numbers down and make the
decision making tractable.
We are going through this right now with the DevoxxUK 2015
programme
committee, and many of us have a fear we might have missed a
good
proposal in the mass culling needed to get few enough selected
not to
have an overburdened programme.
I imagine you are correct. I understand that Google can't take
everyone, and they no doubt have some tough choices, so I don't
feel that we have been unfairly treated in any way. I am hoping
though we can get some feedback so that next year's entry can be
better though.
