[ogf20pc] Possible changes to overall timetable

[Massimo Lamanna]

Dear Dave,
I read your proposal and I should it has still to be modified.
- I see that the Grid Means Business (first slot) still clashes with the
OGF-EGEE plenary
--- As discussed in previous meetings, this is not what we aim for and I
ask again to move it
- I see that you use one parallel session of the usef forum (Thu
morning) to host the GT4 track
--- I fear it might be detrimental of the User Forum programme and I
would refuse it. We discussed to have ~1.5 hours in parallel (i.e. a 5th
session on Thursday and this offer would be still valid
- I see that the EAP has appeared on Thu (as a parallel session)
 
You know that the Thursday programme is the central part of our event,
therefore I must be protective.
On the other hand, I would like to make a "counterproposal".
1) Run (5th parallel session) on Thu morning (full morning) EAP and
other session dedicated to business (Grid Means Business now clashing
with the Web plenary?)
2) Move back the GT4 earlier in the week
 
I think this would be a good option to rationalise the programme,
minimising clashes and stimulating partners to attend to the combined
OFG-EGEE event.
 
Massimo

Subject: [ogf20pc] Possible changes to overall timetable


FYI, I've been discussing some possible changes to the overall timetable
of OGF20, as shown in the attached spreadsheet.  This is all still
beinng discussed, e.g. at a meeting of the OGF event management commitee
tomorrow.  Comments welcome.
 
The changes in this spreadsheet are as follows:
 
Monday:
- Reserved some of the workshop sessions for Wolfgang's Community Grids
workshop
- Minor change to OGC workshop
 
Tuesday:
- Squeezed in an extra plenary by shortening the lunch time
- Moved a GIN session here from Wednesday
- Specifed the requirements workshops and an EGR WG session
 
Wednesday:
- Replaced two group sessions with the Requirements Roll-up and TSC
report sessions
- Replaced a GIN session (moved to Tuesday) with a GLite developer
session
- Added UK to the list of morning speakers (i.e. 30 mins each for UK
e-Science, OGF & EGEE)
 
Thursday:
- Removed the separate Exhibit tear-down / EGEE set up, as EGEE stalls
will run continuously as part of the exhibition
- Added an "Enterprise Adoption Planning" session and three groups in
the Sidings (which isn't currently booked)
- Specified a GT4 session as part of the EGEE track.
 
Throughout:
- Renamed "Standards" as "Groups", to include RGs and other
non-standards groups.
