Hi,
As most of you are aware by now - We finally have a (preliminary)

It's not yet officially published, but I sent it by mail on an ODS to

Hiya,
It is time for me to start pestering the Content team (and I'm hereby
doing so!) so we can start rating and classifying talks; after all, we
have a deadline during April for announcing the first set of approved
talks.
