Re: las-gnome LAS GNOME Schedule and Speakers



I think I re-sent this because the email address I sent from was not on the list. So this is spamming, sorry!

Hi all,

Sri and I had a short meeting on irc yesterday and I'm following up to let everyone know what we discussed and to ask for help with thinking of speakers to approach.

The first thing we discussed was a tentative schedule. We are hoping to get feedback on this from the papers team especially, so if anyone from the team has ideas or objections please comment on the notes below:

* Tentative schedule for LAS GNOME
  * 9am - 5pm talks with 1 hour for lunch and 2 -45 minute breaks  
  * 9 - 10 am headline speaker
  * The venue has 2 rooms for talks
     * 5 speakers per day per room - 45 minute slots
     * 30 speakers total
   * Possibly add workshops or other activities, especially if we are short on speakers
      * 3 hour session on porting apps to Flatpak?

The second thing we talked about was approaching potential speakers for the conference:

* Speaker brainstorming:
  * I made a brainstorming page and added some ideas from contacts I have (mostly Chicago-based developers and communities)  https://etherpad.gnome.org/p/LAS_GNOME_potential_speakers

Please add to the etherpad, and let me know what you think of the list! If there are ideas that look good I will go ahead and contact those people/communities.

Thanks, and have a great weekend,
Meg
