[all] email the PC with any objections or (high probability) alternatives
you want to suggest before next week’s call

- Use
last year’s list (along with any statistics on signups and/or
feedback forms) to elect topics that should be repeated
- AI:
[ian] get available statistics and post to this email list
- Resolved
to reserve one tutorial and two (long) technical sessions for each of the
toplevel projects
- AI:
[ian and twagner] Contact the projects and ensure they know this, and
that they must still submit the abstracts on time to use the slots.
- AI:
[twagner] Remind all technology projects of tutorial and talk deadlines.
- Recording presentations
- Recording
each session is prohibitively expensive
- Asking
presenters to provide their own recordings has not typically worked
- Using
a single room requires subsetting the sessions recorded and doubles the
time commitment for each presenter selected
- AI:
[all] discuss via email; if we can come up with a viable suggestion we’ll
discuss it on the next telecon
