[EuroPython] Q: Link to review submitted talks

2005-05-09 Thread Paul Everitt

Hi all.  This is a question for the admin of the talk registration  
db.  What is the URL for track chairs to review the submitted  
proposals and arrange them into a schedule?

[EuroPython] registration question

2005-05-09 Thread Manuel Zini
A simple question:

we submitted a talk and we don't know if it is going
to be accepted.
But we want to register immediately to get the student
house accomodation.
What if we register as speaker and the talk is not
accepted ?
Can we pay the difference once at the conference ?

thank you very much in advance,
Manuel Zini

Manuel,
 
yes, if you do not get accepted as a speaker there will be solutions to allow you to pay the difference to normal early bird fee.

Cool. :). Note that I'll not be online much the coming few days, so if 
you want to decide before may 11.. I'm not around enough..

My personal preference is more 30 minute talks, and try to avoid 
combining talks into 60 minute blocks.

Your questions elsewhere in the thread make sense; we need to know how 
many slots we have. Since it looks like the framework track will be one 
of the bigger one this year I hope this gets reflected.

Just hypothetically, if we were to accept all 15 talks, and one talk 
would indeed be 60 minutes (I see Steve Alexander proposed one) the rest 
30 minutes, then we'd need 8 hours for the frameworks track.

Regards,

Martijn

Ok, please review the list of registered talks and
give me your feedback as 1-10 rating (1 - not all that interesting,
10 - must have this one) for each talk:

My own talk proposal is for 60 minutes as well - it's hard
to fit a complex subject into 30 minutes.

In any case, I agree that we'll probably need 8 hours total.

I would welcome joining forces with some of the smaller tracks,
e.g. the Misfits and the Python language tracks.

If we could get 4 people for the on-site track
chairing, then each of us would only have to spend 2 hours
attending the track and we could then still enjoy the rest
of the conference.

The more people help out, the better for everyone !

BTW, I would like to repeat my request that the Python framework
track and the business track not overlap; not just because
I'd like to attend some business talks as well, but also
because I find that both tracks have lots of interesting
talks to offer and give a good view on Python from the
business and the developer perspective - which is a first
at EuroPython !

[EuroPython] Meeting Tuesday 10 May 18.00 CET

2005-05-09 Thread Jacob Hallén
We will have a progress meeting Tuesday at 18.00 CET.

As usual we will be on the #europython channel on the freenode IRC network.

The focus of the meeting will be to get the list of talks publshed.

We now have 91 talks and 2 lightning talks registered. A few of the talks 
entries need editing before being published.

There a a few things that should be changing in the list of talks:

- We have only 1 talk in the Education track. If there are any talks in other 
tracks that fit, we should try to get them moved. If we can find any other 
nice talks for the Education track, we should try to get them. I have one 
person who spoke at Pycon that I can contact.

- If there are other tracks with few talks that want to invite special 
persons, you can do so

- I have a few special people I will want to invite. I should get around to 
sending the invitations this week.

In any case, we should be getting a rather nice set of talks. For part of the 
conference we might want to run a fifth room. Since we are renting rooms by 
the hour, the cost of a fifth room will not be very high.

Best regards
