DRAFT Principles for defining the schedule
- Defaulting to three tracks for Users (Transformatorhuis - big), App Developers (Machinegebow - medium) and Platform Developers (De Kapel - small). Exceptions can be made of course but the idea is that each profile should have a suggested session to go at any time.
- Keynotes and Lightning Sessions are organized in Transformatorhuis without other activities at the same time.
- The tiny lovely Oostelijk Meterhuis is available for longer sessions with 25 people or less e.g. a 2h workshop. De Kapel can also serve that purpose if needed.
Checklist
- 3 days for the conference
- Who will organise the schedule? A committee, designated by the council.
- Lightning talks - a great success last year, we should have them again
- Do we need a call for content? Yes - call for content is being prepared.
- If we have a call for content, what is the schedule for proposals & acceptance? 2 to 3 weeks to make proposals, 2 ro 3 weeks for accepting proposals.
- Themes? Fremantle & Harmattan, in three tracks: User, App Developer, Platform Developer
- Schedule - what's the best way to handle planning & putting the schedule online? Wiki.
Timeline
- Decide on conference infrastructure and put it in place: DONE: Using Wiki
- Decide on process for getting content: DONE: Call for content + committee to choose presentations
- Issue call for content if necessary: Mid June
- Deadline for content proposals: Mid July
- Presenters notified: Early August
Suggestions
- I think that 2009 will be Fremantle year, so I expect a summit focused on:
- New technologies showcase (i.e., what can be done with clutter?)
- New hardware features
- And I would add one or two roundtables to talk and discuss:
- What's next?
- What about past hardware? What about third party development?
- Would you like a Maemo App Store?
