Hi guys,
I just wanted to also take the opportunity to give some feedback on the modified review process: 1. Seeing that I would have to do 30000 decisions sort of turned me off right away (It's sort of ... "yeah let me help" and then getting a huge pile of work dumped on my desk) 2. With that huge amount of possible work I could see only little progress for quite some time put into it) ... 30000 decisions would require reading of 60000 applications. If I assume 30 seconds per application that's about 500 hours which is about 20 days without doing anything else. I sort of quit at about 400 decisions. 3. I noticed for myself that at first you start reading the applications carefully but that accuracy goes down very fast as soon as you get a lot of the talks you reviewed earlier ... unfortunately even if you only think you read it before. I noticed me not reading some similar looking applications and voting for one thinking it's the other. Don't know if this is desirable. I liked the simple interface however. So how about dropping the Deathmatch approach and just displaying one application, and let the user select how much he likes it (ok ... this is just the way the old version worked, but as I said, I liked the UI ... just clicking once) ... eventually the user could also add tags to the application and suggest tracks. Looking forward to a great conference :-) Chris
