Well, maybe Danese was doing some psycho-calisthenics behind my back, but the few times I've done it with her, the only direction she made was to notice a few times that people were continuing to speak longer than they ought. But y'know, a panel can do the same thing, so no magic wand necessary. ________________________________________ From: wikitech-l-boun...@lists.wikimedia.org [wikitech-l-boun...@lists.wikimedia.org] on behalf of Daniel Kinzler [dan...@brightbyte.de] Sent: Monday, August 01, 2011 11:54 AM To: Wikimedia developers Subject: Re: [Wikitech-l] "Ask the Developers" panel at Wikimania

Also, we'll probably not be able to change the room layout too much, so circles may not be possible at all. I'll ask dror about that if i see him tonight. -- daniel _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
