hehe. i know the feeling ;) > jokes aside, we have 4 groups, and we could easily end up with more. > the ideal thing would be to have "work sessions" that don't last all day > (half? a bit more?) so we'll have a schedule with two in the morning and > two in the afternoon, maybe with some hours of overlapping but letting > people to attend to more than one. this will really depend on who is attending, how long the breakout groups need/want for their topic, how many presentations, etc. which is why we need to get that information in there, so we can start dealing with exactly the logistics issues you note. > even if the kwin one will make sense probably to be a day ot two, since > martin will be here only for a short time and /all/ of the "core" people > (well, everybody that even remotely touched either libplasma or a shell) > should - really- attend. i don't know if we need everyone there for the window management break out, but it will need to revolve around Martin's schedule as you note. and as we just discussed on irc, it may make sense to suspend the mobile breakout for .5-1 day and hold the kwin breakout then. again, i really need to know who wants to attend which breakouts :) > also, depending from how many presentations there will be, they should be > sequential, so everybody listens to all, and then back to work :) good point; that's also part of the scheduling that needs to happen. we also have some other constraints such as with the mobile break out group presentations: the SDK presentations really must happen right at the start otherwise people won't have the tools they need to get working. -- Aaron J.
