Re: [eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] Tutorial progress and fin

[Bjorn Freeman-Benson <bjorn.freeman-benson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like to make a public statement on the website about when the tutorial program will be finalized.  Can I say "December 5th"?  People can't really start to register until the tutorial program is set.  Let me know and I'll update the website.

Sri, MikeB, PaulV and I met today and made the following selections for the tutorial program:

 

Accepted: 172, 171, 52, 130, 163, 186 (better title, though)

Declined: 70, 151 – but encourage long talk or panel to get some feedback, 154 (but state that we’d like to accept a long talk version of this)

 

These decisions will be held (not recorded) until we complete the tutorial program, which we’ll do on the next call, Friday, December 2^nd. Please plan on attending for two hours so that we can wrap this up. We also agreed to note in 71 that we’ll definitely consider this when selecting long talks as we did declined Koer’s offering in 70.

 

We have 9 more tutorials to select from among the remaining 23; please have 2-3 talks to nominate for the next call. I’ve attached an updated spreadsheet that includes the decisions from today in case that’s useful.

 

Ian Skerrett was also on the call today, and provided helpful info from last year’s tutorial program. Thanks, Ian.
