Hi there,
I just learned today that the Python Frameworks track chair is vacant. I
don't want to fill it myself (I've done it the last 3 years and want to
be a bit more free at the conference; plus someone else might actually
improve stuff. :), so I am hunting for a volunteer. I'll help out any volunteers of course if any of my advice is necessary.
The obvious first place to ask for a track chair volunteer is on this list.
I'm going to be really dumb now and scare people off by listing stuff you need to do. :) Being the Python frameworks track chair would involve:
* processing talk proposals for the Python frameworks track, and keeping the (potential) speakers up to date. This can be done through the website.
* selecting and accepting proposals.
* keeping well-synched with the other trackchairs and organizers through this mailing list and regular irc meetings.
* help to put down the program. This is a puzzle of fitting talks into slots, possibly negotation with other track chairs over time. :) I recommend keeping the talks short (30 minutes).
* being there while the track is held, helping with any (technical) problems that may occur, making sure speakers end and begin on time. Possibly if there is some discussion or Q&A session, help moderate this.
Regards,
