About splitting yes, about running in parallel, i'm still not convinced. Let me explain My main concern here is: if we run in parallel will put more pressure on experienced developers: we can't be at the same time teaching & hacking. So I'm afraid the success will heavily depend on how many experienced devs there will be ! And I think/suspect that this number won't be so high... I'm happy to teach ppl, but hacking together is invaluable too. I don't want to miss one part.
I've another concern: having some rest. In USA, we didn't stop at all. Same in NZ. In France, we had a full week-end for visiting (well, not me, as I was at home), and started the hackfest on monday morning, highly motivated & rested. > If yes, what days and dates?

I think trying to concentrate everything on a single week is a mistake. We had better resting/visiting during the week-end and starting on monday. The idea of thursday break friday/saturday teaching, sunday break, mon->wed hacking sounds really a good idea to me: will let us have some rest to be efficient for work phases. Is it an option to have the conference finish on friday, week-end resting, then a full week of teaching/hacking ?
