Dear Kurt, I understand that you are very busy, but certain things in the conference organization are clearly necessary NOW and don't allow postponing. This...
... I strongly agree with Andreas. At this point I think we should start talking about potentially cancelling the conference if we don't have a CfP within a...

Can we start the process of selecting a host for the 2007 conference, to give them more lead time to organize?...

yes, it's a good idea to look for a host in 2007. Thanks Tim for bringing it up. I could see the 2007 conference either in Asia, Australia or Europe. If we...
I think getting the process underway for the 2007 conference should be started immediately as well. We were only able to get started way too late in the...
Kurt, I feel that as the days go slipping by, it is imperative that we as a group see a number of things from the conference organizers: 1. Transparency 2....

Tim, Thanks for the comments. I agree with you on the 50 minute limit - am wondering at this stage whether to go to 35 minute presentations instead, with 5...

My experiences from Japan and from Vancouver are that 20 minutes is a very short time to do the presentation and answer questions. 35 minutes with a 10 minute...
Okay, I'll change the duration to 35 and 10 - that also gives us a little wiggle room if sessions run a little over, which they inevitably do. Let me run...
Hmm... My impression with the 20-25 minute slots was that there were comparatively few people who managed to get down with them in time. If we work with 45...
... 35 minutes + 10 minute breaks as mentioned by Alastair seems like a good compromise. ... Which "SVG group" are you proposing giving this responsibility...

Tim, I'm inclined to agree with you on the different locations issue. The question is less immediate cost than it is availability. If we can manage to get the...
