Yes, they are confirmed but I'm still trying to grab the speakers names, final title of the sessions, all this in a session submitted to the website. By now let's say: Tuesday 26 at 16h "FLOSPOLS report on Women in Free Software" - http://guadec.org/node/343 . Anne, can you update the summary and description. As agreed, the novelty here is the report so we need to explain this clearer. Wednesday 27 at 11h Accessibility session (the Catalan government has approved a 100.000€ budget for Catalan synthetic voices, improvements in Festival and Screen Magnifier) - http://guadec.org/node/323 the speaker will be another one and the description needs update. Then I suggest the session about GPL3 to be on Wednesday at 16h in the place of "Blind access using the Orca screen reader", that goes to a smaller venue substituting "OSDL desktop architects and the Portland project". The GPL3 session will summarize the FSF meeting held few days before in Barcelona, and it possibly will arise interest. About the keynotes: Monday at 18h: Norbert Bilbeny - waiting for title and description. Bilbeny is full professor of Philosophy and Ethics, specializing in "freedom". He is known for his articles and books around freedom and ethics in the "digital age" and we invite him to give us an external view to the free software movement and, in general, what are we doing here. Tuesday at 18h we have a keynote with 2 speakers. Antonio José Sáenz is going to talk about Guadalinex http://guadec.org/node/159 and José Ángel Díaz is going to talk about gnuLinEx. More than a presentation of both projects, we are requesting them to explain their experience managing huge GNOME deployments, localizing the weakest points and suggest ways to improve the collaboration between GNOME and the public administrations. After Hours Workshops, still pending. -- Quim Gil /// http://desdeamericaconamor.org | http://guadec.org
