I don't think there was any conclusion to this yet. Here is an
attempt
to summarize so we can make a decision at tomorrow's Mylyn call.
We only
have a few days left for submitting the abstract.
Most people
+1ed Mario's proposal. At Ericsson we would like to keep the
abstract but
make it a 40 minute talk since 20 min will be too short for
all
presenters we have.
Steffen recommended that we split in two abstracts
below, but
considering the rather immature status of Mylyn Reviews as a
whole, I
think we can live with a not so perfect presentation flow if we
can get
all key persons from SAP, Tasktop, Vienna University of
Technology and
Ericsson on the same stage in order to better present the
overall vision
and answer all questions. If we split in two talks, we run
the risk of
having material overlap and having one talk rejected.
So,
we would like to propose going ahead with Mario's proposal as a 40
minute
talk, with presenters from Tasktop, SAP, Vienna University of
Technology
and Ericsson. Let's discuss at tomorrow's call. Those who
can't make it
at tomorrow's call should send their input on the
mailing
list.

Sorry for the bad connection [1]. The point I was trying to
make is that
a talk about tools that exists, have source code, an update
site and
documentation is more likely to get accepted than a proposal
that is
less concrete [2]. That said, we have a bunch of good things
coming and
it's mostly a matter of getting them in shape.
I would
propose to update the website and contributor wiki page along
with the
proposal to ensure there is something to look at. I also think
it would
help to emphasize the concrete value that the community can get
out of
the Mylyn Reviews project, e.g. start with what's there now and
then talk
about the vision and progress more than the structure of
the
project.
From my experience, it can be difficult to
maintain a good flow with
more than two speakers, particularly if the
talk is only twenty minutes
long so from my point of view it would make
more sense to submit
separate proposals, e.g. one for the framework and
TBR and a separate
one for R4E.
Just FYI, Benjamin Muskalla and I
submitted a proposal for a talk about
EGit/Gerrit/Hudson:

I was traveling on a train through a mountain range and apparently
the
mountain goats succeeded in their protest against a cell phone
tower.
