Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] Selection status
Big data is a hot topic. Plus it talks about Cassandra and Mongo which I'd like to see us talk about more in the Eclipse context.

To help everyone, here are links to the 3 BIRT talks that were submitted:


I like the first one (BIRT + Bit Data the best), followed by the creating data driven web apps with BIRT. The 3rd talk seems more like a tutorial too me.

Just my $0.02.

cheers,
Ian

I’d like to follow-up in the BIRT discussion.  I think it is important we have a BIRT session in the program.  BIRT is a top-level project that is not represented on the PC.  This was probably an oversight when we created the PC, so I am hoping the existing members can help represent the project.

After eliminating some duplicate talks yesterday, we had 64 "in" talks, leaving room for four more. We discussed several of the proposals and there have been a few with significant changes in their votes. Based on this I have done the following:

Added the following three talks that are now solidly in the "top 68" by vote:

http://www.eclipsecon.org/2013/sessions/tale-2-platforms-eclipse4-and-griffon
http://www.eclipsecon.org/2013/sessions/your-custom-modeling-environment-definition-made-easy-last
http://www.eclipsecon.org/2013/sessions/experiences-porting-suite-massive-swing-apps-eclipse-4

Removed the following talk which has now dropped to nearly 90th place:

http://www.eclipsecon.org/2013/sessions/visualizing-community-eclipse-social-code-graph-revealed

Those were the only big moves that I could see. There were a few minor changes around the 68 talk margin but I didn't adjust "in" tags on these for now. We have two spots left that I would really like to see allocated to Modeling. We still have room for changes in all categories, so if you would like to present arguments for or against any particular talk, please speak up on this mailing list or in Thursday's call. Often different PC members will have insights into a particular talk, subject area, or speaker that will help the rest of us make better decisions on our votes, so please don't hesitate to speak up. This is *your* program!

FYI I have updated my "scorecard" spreadsheet with the latest info. This doesn't need to control what changes we make, but the data help to give a high level picture of the program from various angles.
