Bjorn,
I think some areas, to pick on TPTP for example, are just not
interesting, i.e., they have no significant community and aren't even
producing quality usable results upon which to build a community and
hence they are over allocated. They get their large allocation by
virtue of being a top level project, I think. Picking on these things
seems kind of negative, and perhaps futile. :-P The question will
indeed be what do "we" want to emphasize and I expect different folks
to differ wildly on that...
I do of course see your point though!
I hope you had a great ride!!

Ed,
Wrong answer :-)

that for any of these things, if the slots are really over
allocated, that will become clear by the number of quality submissions;
unused slots will be obviously redistributed...
Jeff said it best last year, but in essence: the distribution of slots
is based what we want the conference to be, not what the set of
submissions happens to be. I.e., just because lots of people want to
talk about IDEs for COBOL doesn't mean that we want to have lots of
talks about COBOL, n'est pas? If the submission quality is low in an
area we want to emphasize, we have to step out and recruit good talks
for that area.
