The people who build tracks select the talks with little influence from other reviewers, whereas the rest of the talks are in one big group, giving a single talk more competition. In case of AOO it means that without a track it is less likely that all talks will be accepted (remark, I only talk theory here, the selection process is just starting). hope that explains the difference rgds jan i > > Regards, > Andrea. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > > -- Sent from My iPad, sorry for any misspellings.
