To me it seems natural that there would be some very good presenters on the PC and I don't think we should penalize the members just for being a part of the committee. I think we have been pretty good about not pushing our own individual talks up the ranks and letting other PC members decide if the talk is good or not. Am 06.12.2013 12:15, schrieb Ian Skerrett:
Tuesday CDO: Satisfy Your Requirements Before You Even Know You Have Them - We need a long talk for modeling and Eike always does a good job. I feel very honored, but I hope that it doesn't look odd because I'm on the committee. Cheers /Eike ---- http://www.esc-net.de http://thegordian.blogspot.com http://twitter.com/eikestepper
An Introduction to Docker – Invited speaker and Docker is a new topic for the attendees. Wednesday Modeling Symposium – They requested the extra time and it is typically popular JDT embraces lambda expressions – We agreed to give them a long slot instead of two talks. Go Reactive: Event-Driven, Scalable, Resilient & Responsive Systems – Invited speaker and Jonas will be a popular speaker We need to be careful about scheduling too many popular talks at the same time.

Ian B. mentioned previously that those are candidates for long slots. However, I think the four listed below aren’t good candidates for long talks. I would pick talks that are exceptional interesting. Another side node, I thought the Modeling Symposium was already set. Thus, reducing the slots to 9. Am I wrong on this one? FWIW, browsing through at the accepted sessions, sorted by avg. rating, here are some picks: - The Road to Lambda - API Design in Java 8 - _javascript_: Don't Believe the Type! - An Introduction to Docker I know it does sound really self-fish …. but I’d like to offer this one too: - Unshackling Mylyn from the desktop -Gunnar Am 06.12.2013 um 11:15 schrieb Ian Skerrett <ian.skerrett@xxxxxxxxxxx>:
There are four talks with the long_talk tag that I was a bit surprised: Exploratory testing and session-based test management Fork the IDE: Build your own SDK with CBI Hudson HIPP: add "sysadmin" to your CV in 35 minutes Advanced tests in Tycho These didn’t pop out to me as being a long talk so I am interested in understanding why they were tagged? FWIW, two of the talks are from Foundation employees and I usually try not to have Foundation employees taking the prime spots.

However, we have 12 'long slots'. These are actually 1 hour slots, although I would expect people to talk for 45 minutes and leave 10 minutes for questions. I've been going through the program and identifying speakers that could make good use of the extra time. Good candidates include interesting subjects, or speakers who submitted several talks on the same subject, but we only accepted one. Since we have 6 long talks each day -- and they happen in parallel -- we should need to ensure that they span different tracks and are not all given by 'rockstar speakers' (I really didn't want to use that term). Go through the program and let me know if you see any talks that should be 'long'. Finally, the crew from Docker has promised me an abstract tomorrow. The docker talk will be given by Nick Stinemates. Cheers, Ian -- R.
