We currently have 20 talks, we expect more people to submit closer to the date. (hcderaad, 13:01:11) * Also some of the talks seem to be somewhat only-promotional/commercial. We don’t want to give the impression that submitting a talk is the same as having it accepted. (hcderaad, 13:01:13) * Also a possibility is to have 2 full time rooms for development and guided trainings. We can choose subjects that are important to openSUSE (hcderaad, 13:01:14) * As criteria for the selection of talks we will apply these principles: (hcderaad, 13:01:16) * - Directly openSUSE related stuff (hcderaad, 13:01:17) * - Technically interesting (first time installations, etc) (hcderaad, 13:01:19) * - Community building (interactions between communities) (hcderaad, 13:01:20) * - Business development value - based on open source (hcderaad, 13:01:22) * Keynotes (hcderaad, 13:12:10) * We can have 8 of them, 2 per day (starting session and closing session), we don’t want to fill them all up already. (hcderaad, 13:12:12) * Confirmed: (hcderaad, 13:12:13) * - Aaron Seigo (yay!) (hcderaad, 13:12:15) * - SUSE (to be announced) (hcderaad, 13:12:16) * - openSUSE Board (hcderaad, 13:12:18) * This leaves five slots, we have at least 1 potential at the moment who still needs to confirm. (hcderaad, 13:12:19) * Promotion on FOSDEM and Scale (and other confs) (hcderaad, 13:14:56) * Social event is coming along nicely, sat 31st of january from 19h Cafe Belga here we come!

(hcderaad, 13:15:00) * ddemaio will bring stickers, warlordfff has offered to make buttons/pins, hcderaad will bring some generic openSUSE stuff (flag, empty USB sticks, ets).

We hope to preload them with openSUSE live so that people can use them and be reminded of the conference.
