Hi All,
Calling for talks/workshops for 2014 election special of ODC. As you know
there mainly 3 tracks

-- Availability, enhancement of election data
-- Data usage in elections and election coverage
-- Accountability

We would love to have you contributed in these tracks.  We have two days of
events. Second day is mostly workshop and hackathon. But can also be used
as impromptu, last minute sessions and talks. We will leave slots free just
for that.

So for day one we will pre-plan a bit. We will have some slots free on day
1 (as well) for impromptu sessions.

As far as the talks go there are mainly two types:

*Day 1:*
*Short Talks* - 20min+10minQnA
-- Good for sharing experiences, results etc
-- Send proposals before this friday. We like to announce some on coming
monday.
-- There are limited slots

*Lightning Talks* - 8min
-- Good for quick introduction to a project, call for help or collaboration,
or nextdays hackathon
-- Each lighting talk is for 8 minutes maximum
-- 7 slides = 5 content, 1 title, 1 about me slides
-- Presentations have to be sent early so we don't have to waste time on
that day. send it by friday. There are only limited slots.


*Day 2:*
- Some of you are already in talks with me/Nisha about the hackathon. Lets
continue that and close it by friday. So we can allot time and room

- If you have ideas for workshop and hackathon  (with specific goal and not
generic). Then please send it. We can talk and finalize it


*Short Workshop* - 45 Mins
-- Small tutorials
-- Send proposals

*Long Workshops/Hackathons* - 60 Mins (multiples of 60 minutes)
-- Longer tutorials, Hands on sessions, goal oriented hacks etc
-- Send proposals



Sorry it took us time to publish this. Thanks to some of you who have
already enquired about this. Waiting for exciting proposals.

Thej n Nisha.
