Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] shortlist summary

[Martin Lippert <mlippert@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey!

I would like to propose the following:

We convert the Java9+10 talk from Mark Reinhold to a keynote on Thursday.
I am afraid of the talk attracting too many attendees and nobody goes to talks in parallel.
This would be an EclipseCon-only keynote.

This would free up one more slot.
I haven’t heard anything against rejecting “Airport Congestion Management with JavaFX and Open Source”, so I would go ahead and remove the “accept” tag from it.

Ian (S.) suggested to remove one talk from the modeling area due to many other modeling-related talks being in the program via the PolarSys and Xtext days. Which one should we remove?

This would free up three more slots in total and we could pick the top three from the list below.

Opinions?

Cheers,
-Martin
