ApacheCon CFP closed, now the hard work starts

[Rich Bowen]

For those of you who have agreed to participate in filtering and 
selecting talks for Apachecon EU, the time has arrived.


If you have not yet logged in to the CFP system - 
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/cfp/cfp-list?field_presentation_event_target_id%5B%5D=2260 
- please verify that you can do so now. And then jump in and get started.


Please note that we have 210 talk submissions right now, and while not 
all of them are regular sessions (ie, Tutorials, etc, are also in here), 
that means that we have to eliminate close to half of these proposals, 
so you're going to need to be brutal. Please don't just rate everything 
'Accept'.


No, I don't know for sure yet how many tracks we're going to run, but we 
have room for 5 or 6 tracks 3 days, and a day/track is 6 talks. That's 
108 talks plus roughly 10% extra for fallbacks for slots that drop out.

I already started reviewing a couple, but the CFP system has the
tendency to lose my filter settings after each review :( Is there a
way we can ping the nice folks at LF on fixing this? It would really
make my reviewing experience a lot easier...

Last time I reviewed something in the LF's CfP system, they said it
was OK to just download the CSV file and work through it in a
spreadsheet.

I too find the system a bit cumbersome, though the CSV is only
marginally less so.

If it's OK with C. this time around, you could do that instead.

Best,

Didn't know about the export-to-CSV option, I'll check it out how it
works...

Re: ApacheCon CFP closed, now the hard work starts

[Pierre Smits]

Rich,

Doesn't the number of talks per day or even track also depend on the
duration of each talk?

What is the goal (duration wise)? I have about 10 OFBiz talks lined up, but
don't have a clue yet about how long each is intended to be.

At the bottom of the page, there's a little orange (I think) CSV
button. Very small, easy to miss.

I'd make sure that C. is OK with receiving spreadsheets again before
going that route. I'm CC'ing C. here to see if he's good with that.

(C.: Jan was having trouble with the CfP system losing his place, and
I mentioned in the past you've been OK with getting a spreadsheet
instead of using the CfP system. I wasn't sure if that was a one-time
thing or if you'd be OK with it here from the folks doing the
ApacheCon rating.)

Best,

The short answer is no. The longer answer is that the CFP system is a 
work in progress, and we have fed numerous feature requests into it, 
including this one, and they are on the way, but won't make it for this 
event.

The assumption is 50-minute talks, which gives a 6 hour day, plus breaks 
and lunch.


Some tracks (eg, Fast Feather) do different talk lengths, and we're open 
to that if you want to discuss a different track format. Just let me 
know soonish.

was OK to just download the CSV file and work through it in a
spreadsheet.

I too find the system a bit cumbersome, though the CSV is only
marginally less so.

If it's OK with C. this time around, you could do that instead.


I've got a spreadsheet at 
https://docs.google.com/a/rcbowen.com/spreadsheets/d/1NSFxoGYkzpkorJkRN7CNnZpsaO59qro3L5YjeTBVSZE/edit#gid=0 
where I'll be attempting to break stuff up into tracks. What we did last 
time was that - we had a spreadsheet, we divided it into topics, and 
went through and marked stuff accepted or rejected based on CFP ratings. 
I've just started that process, and don't expect to get anything done 
today or tomorrow, but if we work together on the "split into tracks" 
bit, then there's much less for folks to review - you just review the 
topics that you know something about. Sound reasonable?

Rich,

So by July 15th submissions should be reviewed and pruned to a manageable
quantity?

Yes, that's the goal right now. This hopefully gives a reasonable time 
window to get managers to approve conference travel based on the 
schedule, rather than on "I'm going to ApacheCon", and also makes it a 
lot easier to get sponsors for the event.

Rich,

Including a column that shows the main project involved might also help.

Re: ApacheCon CFP closed, now the hard work starts

[C. Craig Ross]

Hey,

Thanks for reaching out. I am just fine receiving a spreadsheet (or sheets)
as needed. The only requirement that we have is that the final sheet - that
we will use for preparing the schedule and sending out notifications must
include *all fields* that were included in the initial export so please do
not delete any columns. It does not need to include any comments or
individual rankings either, just the final status of "Accepted",
"Rejected", or "Wait Listed".

Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.

C.

Would it actually makes sense to use ACNA14 Google spreadsheet
as a template for not only rating, but putting into a given track? We
can always merge tracks later if we end up having less rooms,
but I think having that grid from the get go would be useful.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Roman.

Re: Apachecon EU 2014

Rich,

Is there a methodology to measure the success of the event, like counting
the number of attendees per session and or surveying the attendees
regarding appreciation of the session/event after each session and/or event?

Regards,

Pierre
