Hi everyone, it's some hot SMWCon news!
"Ask the speaker" is an experimental feature of our conference that we
want you to try to make it more exciting and to adjust the contents of the
talks to your specific need.
Each talk has an infobox with the link "Ask the speaker" that allows you to
ask the presenter questions you're interested in. Do you want the speaker
to talk more about the technical details of the topic? or maybe you're
interested in business model? or maybe you need more scientific details?
Don't hesitate to communicate the speaker even before the conference
begins.
All the talks are listed in the Agenda:

See you in Cologne!
Yury Katkov
P.S. yes,yes, nowadays 'Ask the speake'r just links to the discussion page
of the talk. :)
