I don't understand what's about this keynote-frenzy. It's just to make a point to MarkS? That seems silly to me, specially when I have already stated many times that we (the papers committee) accepted MarkS talk but as a *regular talk*. Also, how's that this 3 additional keynotes were approved without even a keynote proposal? I'm sure as hell that the papers committee would have voted positively on talks from this great guys, having been given the chance to read a proposal, but this is overriding us completely. No proposal, no discussion, just giving out the more prominent slots in a way (from what I read in the logs) completely arbitrary. Personally, I've spent MANY hours reading proposals, trying to vote as evenly as possible, and I know that the rest of the committee has worked as hard. Now I feel that I wasted many precious hours. And finally, excuse me, but why mail Marga instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Martín Ferrari _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
