Thanks--I didn't realize we were thinking on such a big scale. I just helped the O'Reilly Open Source convention chairs create a track their on open source health care, so I have some idea of the work involved in creating a track. I've made a start already by contacting some possible speakers, and I've got a couple more ideas. Right now, I have no results. But I understand we'll want balance among the various sectors and types of people talking.
Andy --- hi Andy and Frank-- I notice that someone anonymous has edited the description of the debian community outreach track here: http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf10/Tracks I'm hoping it was one of you two ;) I'm happy to see active work on the track! I have two concerns, though: (a) it seems to refer to "the panel" as though that were the same thing as the track. There could very well be a panel which is proposed as part of the track, but a track should have multiple events. (b) i haven't yet seen a collection of other events for the track (though i'm assuming Frank's proposal would also be in this track), so i don't have a sense of how it's coming together. If you have a chance, take a look at Pablo Duboue's page for the Java track: http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf10/TrackJava If we could start assembling something like this for the community outreach track, that would be great. Thanks for your work on this. I think the focus of this track is important, and i'm excited to try to highlight this sort of ongoing work at debconf.
