Hello John,
a very nice write-up. Could you post that on the EPC/python.org wiki
somewhere ?
I agree with pretty much everything you've said, esp. limiting
the number of attendees and number of parallel sessions/talks.
Both will likely have a nice side-effect of people signing up
early and speakers submitting their talk proposals earlier
than just before the deadlines.
I wouldn't count on earlier submissions. PyCon accepts only about 50% of
submitted talks and still *most* of them are submitted on the last day.
I know it's a shame to reject potentially good talks (and talk selection
is a difficult process) but I think that accepting a fixed number of
talks will lead to a better conference.
A big thanks to Laura and John for their work on this years EuroPython
and on the next one.
Michael
