I think it is neither the right place

Oh, sorry, what is the right mailing list to bring this up?

nor the right way

You don't want feedback with constructive intent?

nor the right time to discuss

Should I have brought it up earlier or later? What is in time for 2015, say?

what the reasonable length of a conference is.

There are geeks that
want to spend a lot of time at the conference with talks and sprints, there are
people that are only interested in the talk but in sprints, there are python dev
that come for training and talks and perhaps not sprints…..too many different 
expectations.

I didn't realize the research on this was done. Could I see it?

I'm also confused as to why you're making an argument in this discussion when this is not the right place, right way or the right time to discuss this.

You will never bring all expectations under one hood.

Okay, in this case my proposal is that each year we do a random.randint(1, 6) (a 6 sided die) and that's the length of the conference.

Sarcasm aside, more seriously:

Andreas, I realize you're probably feeling overloaded about this conference, but you just told somebody who tried to give constructive criticism and bring up a topic that ties directly into the speaker selection debate that's going on anyway to shut up and go away. It's not appreciated and I'm feeling strongly inclined to do just that right now. Bye.

Regards,

Martijn
