I've been to conferences before where speakers could request either a
short or a long time slot. For example, 20 minutes would be just fine
for me to give an update on Mallard happenings. Lightning talks are
fun, and I love giving them, but I can't fit everything in 5 minutes.
But 45 minutes for that would drag.
You could do it so that the short presentations are a single track,
and then the longer talks are multi-tracked.
I've added a sketch to the etherpad [1] - you could have 12 longer
talks and either 8 or 16 short ones, depending on whether you go
multi-track for those or not.
20 minutes talks could work, but I don't understand the motivation for
keeping those in a single track only.
You'll end up with only 20 talks for the entire conference. [1] Making
the 20-minute slots multi-track would grow that number to 28.
1. This working on the premise that we either cut the lightning talks or
the interns lightning talks + team presentations. If not, we're talking
14 talks total or so...
