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.

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: DONE: Call for content issued, we need to do some more communication work & get proposals
• Deadline for content proposals: September 13
• Presenters notified: On going

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?

Mer would like to talk about bringing as much of Fremantle as possible to older devices and how it works with Nokia and the community. Would there be interest in:

• Talks about Mer?
• Mer's development SDK/processes?
• Hands-on Mer development sessions?
• Mer/Maemo/Garage/Nokia integration (although this is already a fast moving target)

Please, do not put similar themes overlapping on simultaneous tracks. For example, UI Design, UX panel and OpenGL would have the same audience although the presentations are from different point of view. (As an application developer, I would participate in all of those!) Try to organize the themes more sequentially.
