Hey, GUADEC is just around the corner, and we're slowly starting to finalize the GUADEC schedule for Stuttgart. The current schedule is available here -
http://2005.guadec.org/schedule You'll notice that we have some new things to try out at this years conference. Lightning Talks =============== These are sessions giving people an opportunity to talk about their pet project, or peeve, for a short space of time, preferably between 2-5 minutes. We tried these out at the Boston summit last year, and it proved to be quite successful. If you're interested in presenting something, register yourself at http://live.gnome.org/Stuttgart2005/. We'll cram as many of you into an hour as possible - expect some crazy laptop swapping action! Freeform Sessions ================= Much of the planning and discussion at GUADEC happens outside the formal organized set of talks, whether over some dinner, or beer. While this is quite often the most effective way when progress needs to be made, it's also an indication that there are too many talks at GUADEC. This year is no exception. However, it's also hard for new developers to get involved in the planning. We're looking for visionary people to lead these sessions, ideally from the core group of GNOME developers [you know who you are]. We have 3 sessions available in the current schedule, with 1 already taken up with Marketing GNOME, and our very own Luis Villa. We're looking for reasonably general topics, or problem areas that we need to discuss. If you think you have what it takes, start thinking and send your ideas to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Each session will go off, brainstorm, and report back to a big group session at the end of the day on their findings, or solutions. GUADEC needs you - share the love! Glynn _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
