Talk acceptance:
- require the actual presentation to be submitted ( we've been very flexible with this previously )
Why is this a requirement?
> This is just to make sure that people don't feel too comfortable on > what they already know and try to scrap up the presentations an hour > before the presentation.
This doesn't feel too valid to me. I didn't experience this with any of the presentations given last year, do other people feel that this was a problem?
I have 2 issues with it:
1. Often the most appropriate time to write talks is the 8-10 hrs it takes to commute to the conference.
2. Events often overtake things that are written months before. We work in a particularly dynamic environment, requiring a presentation to be set in stone months before the conference seems like putting an artificial block on how relevent a presentation is...
