| Hi all -- when we discussed this, our goal was to extend the deadline AND have a program on the website in early December. The PC will still have 10 days or so to choose the program, and that will mean every member being on every call, and agreement to meet the deadlines within that time period. The biggest crunch will impact the people converting the PC choices into a schedule on the website -- mainly Doug and Anne.
Eric, thanks for the nightmare image -- big-box stores on Black Friday. No shopping for me. My extended family will be eating turkey sandwiches, watching football, and playing Cranium/Trivial Pursuit/Mah Jong/Monolopy/Scrabble/Catchphrase/Clue depending on our moods.

A good reason for the Americans on the PC to stay home and select
EclipseCon talks. Think of the money you will save :-).

As is November 25th, when USians lose 10% of their annual income in a
2-hour orgy of spending at big-box retailers.

Ok sorry I just assumed it would move too, especially as you guys have
Thanksgiving on 24th so doesn’t give you much time…
I will work to whatever date you guys decide. We are planning on reviewing
the OSGi DevCon submissions before Thanksgiving.
Regards
Mike

I would really like to see the PC keep to having the program announcement by
Dec. 1. I can't stress the importance of having a program announced before
we can do useful marketing.

Hi
Given the deadline for submissions has been pushed back a week can you
confirm when the finalization of accepts/declines will now be?
Is this one week back too so Dec 2?
Many thanks
Mike
