Hi everyone, Here is the proposed pre-allocated track schedule for the Dublin PTG:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRmqAAQZA1rIzlNJpVp-X60-z6jMn_95BKWtf0csGT9LkDharY-mppI25KjiuRasmK413MxXcoSU7ki/pubhtml?gid=1374855307&single=true The proposed allocation takes into account the estimated group size and number of days that was communicated to Kendall and I by the team PTL. We'd like to publish this schedule on the event website ASAP, so please check that it still matches your needs (number of days, room size vs. expected attendance) and does not create too many conflicts. There are lots of constraints, so we can't promise we'll accommodate your remarks, but we'll do our best. If your team is not listed, that's probably because you haven't confirmed that your team intends to meet at the PTG yet. Let us know ASAP if the situation changed, and we'll see if we can add extra space to host you. You'll also notice that some teams (in orange below the table in above link) do not have pre-allocated slots. One key difference this time around is that we set aside a larger number of rooms and meeting spots for dynamically scheduling tracks. The idea is to avoid pre-allocating smaller tracks to a specific time slot that might or might not create conflicts, and let that team book a space at a time that makes the most sense for them, while the event happens. This dynamic booking will be done through the PTGbot. So the unscheduled teams (in orange) are expected to take advantage of this flexibility and schedule themselves during the event. This flexibility is not limited to those orange teams: other teams may want to meet for more than their pre-allocated time slots, and can book extra space as well. For example if you are on the First Contact SIG and realize on Tuesday afternoon that you would like to continue the discussions on Friday morning, it's easy to extend your track to a time slot there. Note that this system also replaces the old ethercalc-scheduled "reservable rooms". If a group of people forms around a specific issue and wants to discuss it, they can ask for their own additional "track" and schedule it dynamically as well. Finally, you'll notice we have extra space set aside on Monday-Tuesday to discuss "hot" last-minute cross-project issues -- if you have ideas of topics that we need to discuss in-person, please let us know. -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
