Intro talks shouldn't be scheduled against each other.  And, if wanted,
we can decide to not schedule them against any wf talks.  But it is
still important to schedule the Django ones all together, and the TG
ones likewise, etc.  Consider that while you are at your WF talks, you
will be missing talks on testing, databases, or whatever else floats 
your boat.  These things will be scheduled in such a way that the 
talks logically flow one from other, especially where there are 2 or
more talks on the same sort of stuff.  So it is bad if you keep having
to miss talk 2 out of a series of 3 because that's where the Django
talks are, and you hopping around like a frog ín a fire makes it
harder on the others who are staying put.  

The idea is not to schedule for people who want variety -- they will
always be trouble :) no matter what you do -- but for the people who
do not.  Otherwise every talk loses 5-7 minutes 'while we wait for
the people who are leaving to get out of here, and the people who
just arrived to sit down and be quiet'.
