My understanding is that each conference track has a chair (or group of people) responsible for selecting the talks, and that the voting helps them select popular talks. It's not the only criteria they follow though (otherwise you would end up with 12 Docker talks). (disclaimer: I have never been a track chair so I only speculate on the process they follow) -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
