We don't have a strict procedure for panel discussions, nor for sprints. As you know last year we didn't have much going on at the conference beyond talks & trainings, and that was a precise focus choice; now that we know that the basic structure stands, we are happy to augment it. First question: is there a specific difference between a "BoF session" or a "Panel discussion"? In my experience they are mostly the same (though BoF probably facilitate more interaction), but I would like to clarify this. Do we need to differentiate them? I don't think so. My idea was to add a page like the one we have for sprints (https://ep2012.europython.eu/p3/sprints/) where people can submit ideas for panel discussions, others can express interests by subscribing to them. Later, we can show them on the schedule. > PS: While registering a few talks I noticed that when selecting > "30 minutes" as talk duration, the talk page still shows > "45 minutes" (the edit page shows the correct 30 min). I know it's confusing but we did not get around fixing it. One is net duration of talk (excl Q&A), the other is the slot length (incl Q&A). Lorenzo, our talk manager, will be contacting all speakers soon, we will have all these details sorted out and double-checked before the talk voting begins on Monday. -- Giovanni Bajo :: ra...@develer.com Develer S.r.l. :: http://www.develer.com My Blog: http://giovanni.bajo.it _______________________________________________ Europython-improve mailing list Europython-improve@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython-improve
