Maybe it has to do with how the event is marketed each time? We (and the LF) should have some statistics (graphs? Trend lines?) on past registrations. Or don't we measure such? For sure, when a kind of 'pressure' is marketed, the interested parties seem to register their talk. But it might also be that potentials are looking at each other in order to get a grasp of who does what.
Every event, on any topic, of any size, that I have ever been affiliated with, has had this same situation. No matter what you do, half the papers will be submitted in the last week of the CFP. Nobody likes it, but it's reality.
And this time, I was part of the problem. Sorry 'bout that. -- Rich Bowen - rbo...@rcbowen.com - @rbowen http://apachecon.com/ - @apachecon
