The basic idea behind the Open DebConf Day was to select the talks that would be interesting both to DDs and non-DDs, so that we could invite Debian users, contributors or interested people to that day in particular. For this to happen someone (I think the committee is best suited for this) should mark those talks that are of general interest in Penta. I talked with Ana about the prospective public, and she told me that there are a lot of Debian Users in Spain that don't speak enough English to understand a talk in English, therefore, it would be a good idea to have at least a group of talks in Spanish, parallell to the talks in English. Some sponsors already want to give their talks there, and I guess they'd do it in Spanish. Also, Ana wanted to give a "how to contribute to Debian" talk, in Spanish. We'd need to have a few more talks in Spanish of about the same level (i.e. oriented to Debian/Free Software users, enthusiasts, but also interesting to DDs or DMs). So, summarizing: for the English track, someone (hopefully from committee) needs to go over the officially selected talks and select a bunch of them for OpenDay; for the Spanish track, we need the prospective talk givers to load them into Penta, and we need more talks. -- Besos, Marga _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
