Dear all,
We have received 26 talks and 1 lightning talk so far. Most of
them are GNOME 3 and / or GNOME related and very interesting.
And most of the speakers are either local speakers or hackfest
hackers :-)
Please find below
the list of talks / speakers. Detailed speakers' bio / abstracts
can be accessed in the shared Google doc - named
<<GNOME.Asia Summit 2011 - speaker submission list>>
you should already have the right to access the file. If not,
please let me know.
Since we mentioned
we will start to notify speakers on Feb 20 (for 1st round), it's time to review / accept /
reject those talks and inform the speakers accordingly.
I think we can consider to accept all the following talks in the
first round especially those related to GNOME and GNOME 3. Does
anybody have any comment / rejection on any of the following
talks?
