Re: [eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] Grouped short talks idea

[Peter Kriens <Peter.Kriens@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think we have already a very strong (and overwhelming) program with
the long talks. Short talks are nice because you get lots of different
snippets in a short time. Diluting the concept is therefore imho not
such a good idea.

We have to provide a pleasant conference, too much choice can kill
part of the fun because you know you will miss so much. So I suggest
to leave the short talks, well ehh, short.

Kind regards,

     Peter Kriens
