Yes, I think the topic would work best
as a conversation in a room of interested committers/contributors, rather
than a one-way presentation from Wayne. I wouldn't want to exclude anyone
from that conversation, I just think it gets into fairly esoteric Eclipse
process discussions that will confuse as much as help a general audience.
I will follow up with Wayne about this.

Last year there were a number of "meetings"
(I attended one on CBI and one on LTS). Wayne's talk on ideas to revise
the Eclipse development process might be better suited for this. Do you
think we could give wayne a room and a few hours, then he could try and
attract an audience to talk about how the Eclipse development process can
be improved?

cheers,
Ian

As I said in one of the comments, if we are aiming for about 5 community
talks, having two from Wayne is not representative.  Lars commented
that the "revise" talk is aimed more at insiders and likely not
of interest to wider audience. Although it is a topic that is very important
to me personally, I agree with that assessment. I think we should reject
the second one, and keep only the "how to become committer" talk.
If there are changes to the development process coming in 2013 that committers
need to know about, they can cover that in the first talk. More detailed
discussion on revising the development process would be a good topic for
a smaller side meeting of interested committers, perhaps as part of or
combined with the regular architecture council meeting that traditionally
occurs on the Sunday before the conference. If you agree with this, please
revise your vote down on the second talk...
