Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] Talks selection process

Hi,

I understand both your positions but I am in favor of treating this as a test balloon, therefore I think we should limit the publicly announced influence of the community voting, since we will not be able to take it back easily. 
Another question about this came into my mind: If we opted for x% influence by community voting, do we define a lower bound in the number of votes overall in community voting before we even consider it in the voting result?

Cheers,
Maximilian

I understand your concerns. But I see it the other way around:
I think if we advertise the community voting as something that will have a real impact, more people might be interested in it… :-)

Cheers,

I will compile all of these votes with means and std deviations along with community voting. We will meet again for a second call. We will discuss the proposals on which we don't agree, on which the community doesn't agree and on which we don't agree with the community!
>>>
>>> You will have the opportunity after this call to change your vote. I will compile the changes, and we will meet again for a third call where we set the the average value above which talks will accepted by default. We will also talk about how much the community voting will be accounted for. My proposal is to integrate it for 20% of the result. We are 12 on the PC (excluding Julien as he won't vote for standard program talks, he will lead the IoT day committee), so the community voting will count for ~2,5 people. This is only a proposal and it can (will) change depending on the number of votes we get from the community.
>>>
>>> Finally, we will meet for a fourth and last call to decide about the talks slightly above or below our expectation level. We will also check that all topics are well represented.
