All, I think we reached consensus that it would be a good idea to have a simplified version of the external description of the EclipseCon categories. I have re-worked the category descriptions a bit and filled in some misses from the first round. The re-worked categories are up on the spread-sheet plus I have just copied them into the email for your convenience. At this point, I just want to work with total hours of presentation time, once we get agreement that the categories are correctly named and we have the allocations appropriately balanced, I will take a stab at the Tutorial, Long, Main Stage, and Short Talk allocations. If you feel your category is not getting appropriate representation, now is the time to speak up. NOTE: I added 8 hours to the total to take in account the addition of the Linux DevCon Additional questions: 1) Do the External Category Descriptions (first column in Bold) make sense? 2) Do we have the right balance between the various External Categories? 3) Did I miss any internal categories? 4) Do the internal category names make sense? 5) Is the balance good for the internal categories?  Finally, I wanted to share a personal milestone with all of you. Today was our last big "First Day Of School". Both of my kids, Sam (pre-k) and Louise (1st grade) are now in school. Like most proud parents we had to take a picture, nice photo except for the goon in the blue shirt.  scott |
