Dear community members (I CC'ed people who submitted design sessions so far)
I got a few questions regarding "acceptance" and scheduling of Design Sessions
for the Developer and Design Summit. As you may recall, the Developer and
Design Summit mixes the formats of past Summits and Hackathons. The afternoons
are reserved for Design sessions, which will follow the format of Hackathons.
Thus, in the tradition of the Xen Project Hackathons, we will not run Design
Sessions through the Program Management Committee, as long as we have enough
space to host sessions. The submission system is still open for Design Sessions
at
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/xen-developer-and-design-summit/program/cfp
<http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/xen-developer-and-design-summit/program/cfp>
(although the website says otherwise, which I will get fixed) and sessions can
be submitted until Friday 7th of July. Sessions can still be proposed on the
day of the event (using A5 post-it-notes) as in the past.
Whenever new sessions come in, I will once a week put them live the afternoon
Design Sessions on the summit schedule, using the following criteria
Schedule sessions on a day which has similar topics to the ones already
proposed (makes the live scheduling sessions at the event easier)
Schedule sessions on (or after) a day where related talks take place (creates
more valuable discussions)
Schedule such that people which have multiple sessions get some breathing space
(aka avoid that everyone has all their sessions on one day)
Note that we will have room rooms with a projector, others won't.
If you submit design sessions and you need a projector, please add this under
"List any technical requirements that you have for your presentation over and
above the standard projector, screen and wireless internet"
If you need to have your session on a specific day due to travel constraints,
please add this under "List any technical requirements..."
The purpose of publishing design sessions as they come in is twofold:
let you know what others are planning to do (avoids duplicate sessions)
marketing (attracts attendees)
You can propose new design sessions every day of the event, but we prefer if
you proposed them using the submission system.
As in the past at Hackathons we will try and balance the schedule and merge
related sessions as a group in a 30 minute scheduling session. I am also happy
getting feedback from community members on this thread: to facilitate this, I
will post schedule updates every other week or so.
As we have Linux Foundation staff on hand, we should also be able to update the
on-line schedule immediately afterwards. But we will also have a paper schedule
(using post-it notes), as it is easier to manage the scheduling session.
I attached the schedule for Design sessions as we will publish by the end of
this week
