And without an approximated number of sessions for each day I can't do a table of content that make sense; there is a dependancy problem here. Dave are you able to highlight me on that please ? Has a structure appeared ? Could Dave or one person of the schedule working group make a little sum up of on going effort ? What's clear and what's not decided yet ? It doesn't need to be definitive. Sorry if I missed some mail on that matter. For the moment, let's say that the table of content draft is here : http://live.gnome.org/GUADEC2006/PrintedContent I'll update it to take into account comment by Behdad and go for a black and white design, we still can add color later. -- Ludovic Danigo _______________________________________________ guadec-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/guadec-list
