    I have to agree with this. For an academic thing, I'd have
    research done
    and papers written long before. However, for a less formal conference,
    like Kohacon, it tends to only really take form in the month previous,
    and I'm usually chopping and changing content right up to the day
    before. And certainly not writing a full paper for it.

    Or, perhaps more realistically, writing slides on the plane over,
    where
    I can see the deadline approaching at 900kph ;)

    It's not a bad idea to collect slides and other resources when you
    can,
    and putting them up online somewhere though.

Hi All,
So the consensus seems to be no written papers / presentations beforehand. Ok will discuss with VPM but I dont see a problem with that. We can always scramble and put together a collection on CD to be distributed on the last day.

Most contributors will at least make their slide presentations available. Will there be any recording of the presentations?

This means we have to drop the *"Advertisements in the conference proceedings publication"* type of sponsorship. The largest sponsor we have Bharat Grahak had opted for back page of the same and I would hate to lose that sponsorship. I hope the other sponsors who had opted for advertisements will be ok with some of the other "at the venue" options presented here http://www.vpmthane.org/payments/kohacon11/insert_cc.asp ?
Koustubha,
Its fine by us. We're happy to be supporting the conference and you can use our contribution as you see fit. What I would like to see is a table or display place where we can leave our brochures at the conference for anyone who is interested. There was a table at KohaCon10 in Wellington with an interesting array of information handouts.
Regards,
Bob
