Ok, so we're almost at the finish line as far as review submissions
go. At this point my dashboard is saying: "You have 191 proposals
unreviewed.". This is pretty good, but raises a few questions:
1. I assume that I can wake up in the morning (PST) tomorrow
and whatever is submitted is it. I'll review the ones that fall into
my domain and then I can go enjoy some nice Californian weather
outside. Now, suppose we end up with more accepted talks than
we have slots in the, lets say, bigdata track. What happens next?
Based on the sum of the reviews, I'll need to make final selections. In
the events where it's not obvious what those selections need to be, I'll
come back to the folks who have indicated that they care about a
particular track, and clear my selections by you guys.
2. Obviously I shouldn't be reviewing my own talks, but given that
last time I checked I was the only volunteer in the bigdata space.
What happens to those? Who will be reviewing them?
There are a lot of people doing general "this looks interesting"
reviews, including myself. Hopefully this will result in an eventual
clear picture. If it doesn't, see above.
Meanwhile, I presume that if someone submits a talk, they themselves
think it's a good talk.
