Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] Great talks at EclipseCon Europe

Eike, what did you like about the speaker pitches? 

I am curious what others thought of the speaker pitches?  I personally felt
they were too long and didn't add much value. During the pitches I saw a
number of people leave and lots of people talking.

Yeah, and the speaker pitches (which I hope we'll have in NA, too) spanned
the entire schedule width, so it was impossible to know where they are.
