What hasn't been agreed is the amount of time spent for this. I think that pushing everything to 10:30 because of this is not a useful way of spending our time. I believe 15 minutes should be enough for both announcements and raffle. > I think you are underestimating the time it takes to fill and clear > a large venue room. I've been thinking about this. If the point of the raffle and the announcements -as has been said- is to bring people together, then we don't want to go splitting them into separate rooms immediately afterwards. Therefore, I propose this structure for the morning session 09:45 - Announcements and Raffle 10:00 - Keynote (no parallels) 11:00 to 13:00 - Concurrent talks (2 to 4 slots, depending on length) This means less talk slots, yes, but I think that it will also mean a better result both for the announcements/raffle and the first speaker in the morning. I agree that we will likely need to put concurrent talks in the afternoon as well, at least on some of the days. -- Besos, Marga _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
