Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] early-bird selection process
|
Hey!
I hope you are all fine with this process for the early-bird selection tomorrow.
This is a friendly reminder that out early-bird call is tomorrow at the usual time.
The agenda is:
- keynote update from Ian
- early-bird selection
Anything else you could like to discuss tomorrow?
Cheers,
-Martin

You can start to take a look earlier than that and change your votes up until the conference call starts. Just make sure that your 3 talks are voted with 5 stars by then.

> In addition to that you can also start to add public visible comments to the proposals if you have feedback for the authors (if they should improve the abstract in some way, clarify something, add more details, or whatever. The thought behind this is that we as a program committee should help people to submit good abstracts by giving them feedback before the final deadline approaches.
