My apologies to Scott for ruining his idea for incenting
everyone to finish their TODOs. I just happened to still be at my desk when
the email came through...
FWIW, the Mobile & Embedded aardvark did not
go to my project, so maybe the recipient can buy me a beer or two at the
show. :-)
-E From: eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Scott Rosenbaum Sent: Friday, December 05, 2008 10:58 AM To: Eclipsecon Program Committee list Subject: Re: [eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] Win an Aardvark Congratulations to DSDP, you have another talk. I upgraded your aardvark 679 to tentative-accept, removed the aardvark, and changed your allocation. Just an FYI, this leaves DSDP with no Long aardvarks. No complaints from me, but if you have another talk that you think should be in the program, you should add another aardvark long. I also had a look at Business & Industry. I would like to award a short talk session to B&I for Donald's second place finish for a few reasons: a) he was the most over-booked on a percentage basis, b) he finished working through all his submissions, c) The two short talks that are marked as Aardvarks were things that I really wanted to see in the program. I changed the B&I allocation to have three hours of shorts and changed the status on those two talks to Tentative-Accept. In terms of 582 as a MAIN_STAGE presentation. I tagged it as an Aardvark so that it will show up for consideration as Main_Stage. If we do choose this as a Main_stage, that would open up a Long slot into the aardvark pool. Donald, if you want to be able to keep this Long as B&I, you will need another aardvark out of your 9 declined longs. If you really don't like any of those, please don't feel obliged to stuff one in. Make sense? Arguments? Now for third prize...
Actually, this process feels a bit arbitrary. I know you are all working hard at getting things ready for Tuesday. I am happy to hand out a third place prize, but I need to make sure that no one is to upset with the contest. Let me know if you want the Win an Aardvark contest to continue. scott PS: How long will it take until someone says, "I think the contest should continue and by the way my category is ready..." |
