[Steve Crumb]

All,
 
Let me attempt to put to bed the mis-conception that there will be no time
to discuss the program.  In fact, one of the agenda items is specifically
geared toward determining criteria for how many tracks we should have, how
these tracks should be scheduled to reduce conflict, and other topics that
will make developing the program clearly understood by all participants.
While we might not be talking at the level of specific content proposals
(though if time allows, I see no reason not to), I think it is certainly
beneficial to the program committee and over all leadership of the event
that the details of what are being called "operational issues" get resolved
lest plan for a program that we cannot execute.

Thank you Ann.

I was worried when I saw OGF2 and thought maybe we had gone back on our
commitment to numbering onwards from GGF18 - I was glad to see later that
this was a typo <((-:)

 

I find it disquieting that programme content will not be discussed at this
meeting. I thought we agreed in GGF18 that there would be a PC meeting at
SC06 to finalise the general form of the programme.  I cannot see how
responsibilities for doing things can be divorced from decisions on what we
are doing.  If we are investing so much time we should be making definitive
and binding decisions.  We should also be well advanced in developing the
programme.

 

See you there

Malcolm
