Ok, so conclusion was "no". Only propose combinations if meaningful (where 
audience would be the same). 
Thanks

David,


Last year many of the two hour presentations ended up being really long 
talks with no hands on (boring). The problem is that two hours is not 
enough time to really get everyone setup to do hands on, provide 
instruction, and do exercises.

If you combine two talks, rather than think of it as two - two hour 
sessions, I would prefer the submitters integrate their work so that it is 
a cohesive walk through with logical hand off points and a common story. 
The goal would be to coordinate the exercises so that the four hours has a 
good flow from one subject to the next with a minimum amount of time 
messing around setting up the environment.

Not know which talks you are looking at, I don't know if this is possible. 
 Given your description it does not sound like it is possible.

Scott

Was there a conclusion about 2-hr tutorials? Can we have 2, 2 hr. 
tutorials that are not literally merged into one? 
I have 2 submitted that I thing would be suitable (and better) as 2 hours, 

but they can't be meaningfully merged (different topics, one's beginner, 
one advanced, etc. Am I safe to ask the authors? (via comments, I got that 

conclusion :)
