Ok, please review the list of registered talks and give me your feedback as 1-10 rating (1 - not all that interesting, 10 - must have this one) for each talk: http://www.python-in-business.org/ep2005/tracks.chtml > My personal preference is more 30 minute talks, and try to avoid > combining talks into 60 minute blocks. > > Your questions elsewhere in the thread make sense; we need to know how > many slots we have.

My own talk proposal is for 60 minutes as well - it's hard to fit a complex subject into 30 minutes. In any case, I agree that we'll probably need 8 hours total. I would welcome joining forces with some of the smaller tracks, e.g. the Misfits and the Python language tracks. If we could get 4 people for the on-site track chairing, then each of us would only have to spend 2 hours attending the track and we could then still enjoy the rest of the conference. The more people help out, the better for everyone ! BTW, I would like to repeat my request that the Python framework track and the business track not overlap; not just because I'd like to attend some business talks as well, but also because I find that both tracks have lots of interesting talks to offer and give a good view on Python from the business and the developer perspective - which is a first at EuroPython ! -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, May 09 2005) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,FreeBSD for free ! :::: _______________________________________________ EuroPython mailing list EuroPython@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython
