I completely agree with the idea of having only 30 minute slots, as it will make programming (for you and the audience) so much easier. If there is no possibility for the panel, I’d propose you add a couple of more talks (from your backup), rather than extend the time slot of presentations. You can also leave 15-30 minutes at the end for general discussion and conclusions – of course someone must be moderating it. -- zvr From: dependency-management-devroom <dependency-management-devroom-bounces@lists.fosdem.org> On Behalf Of Catherine Nuel Sent: Friday, 13 December, 2019 17:40 To: Thomas Mortagne <thomas.mortagne@xwiki.com>; Georgios Gousios - EWI <G.Gousios@tudelft.nl> Cc: Dependency-management-devroom@lists.fosdem.org; cedric thomas <cedric.thomas@ow2.org> Subject: Re: FOSDEM Devroom - Final list of proposals : please classify Hello all, Thanks for the feedback provided. So if I try to sum up, we have the following list: Proposals to integrate (position 1, first level of interest and priority): - 1 (45') : There's no sustainability problem in FOSS (except that there is) - 2 (45') : Comparing dependency management issues across packaging ecosystems - 4 (30') : Building Confidence & Overcoming Insecurity - 9 (45') : Precise, cross-project code navigation at GitHub scale - 10 (25') : Spack's new Concretizer - 11 (30') : FASTEN: Scaling static analyses to ecosystems Proposals to discuss: - 3 (45'): Package managers: resolve differences => depends on the ability of submitter to provide a list of speakers. I've contacted them, we can wait until monday for possible feedback. Proposal to integrate only if we have time: - 6 (15'), 8 (30') => I am proposing to keep those as back-up talks as we won't have the room to integrate it for now. TENTATIVE PROGRAM My proposal would be to integrate the 6 proposals from first category and change the schedule to 30' for all talks (would make it more consistent and easier to manage). - 6 slots * 30' = 3 hours (from 3:00 to 6:00pm) - Remaining hour (from 6:00 to 7:00pm): we integrate the panel discussion if we get the list of speakers (45') + we could keep 15' to start get some feedback from participants around SW dependencies and more specifically on FASTEN, including distributing a quick survey. If we don't get the list of speakers for talk #3 by monday, then we can keep the initial durations for talks #1, #2, and #9 and we'll be fine with the timing. What do you think? Any remark at this stage? We need to finalize this on monday and send notifications to speakers. Thanks again for your feedback and have a nice week-end, Catherine Hello all, The final list is here: https://www.fasten-project.eu/view/wiki/WP7/FOSDEM-Devroom We have 11 proposals. It won't be unfortunately possible to integrate all talks, so we'll have to select and maybe modify the duration requested by speakers. In order to move forward, please classify the 11 talks in order of preference. Please have in mind that we have 4 hours in total, so that could make for example 8 talks * 30 minutes, or 4 talks * 45 minutes + 2 talks * 30 minutes. Please provide your feedback by mid of next week latest so we can target to have the agenda on December 15 as requested by FOSDEM team. Thanks, Catherine Le 04/12/2019 à 17:23, Catherine Nuel a écrit : thanks Thomas for your feedback. Actually we can organize the program the way we want, there is no constraints from FOSDEM team on the timings and lenghts of presentations. So if we prefer to shorten some talks, this is possible. Now we have 9 submissions, so that makes a change. I will collect all proposals and copy it on the wiki page asap. @all: What do you think of organizing a quick call end of next week to finalize that? (for me it would be possible on friday dec. 13 or monday dec. 16, which would be the last possible day to finalize the program I guess). Georgios, would you have some availabilities one of those days? Can we send a doodle to all team? If not possible, we'll have to manage by email. Thanks, Catherine Le 04/12/2019 à 09:09, Thomas Mortagne a écrit : The proposals looks interesting (maybe a bit less sure for Pulp and sustainability but it's still in the same general domain). 45 minutes left might be a bit low but depends what we have in store to present.

Now we need to decide if we look for more proposals and select afterwards the prefered ones. The deadline to submit is this week wed. Dec. 4 but I guess this is possible to extend it for a few days if we wish too. The final deadline is that we have to provide the Devroom program by December 15. Please give your feedback on the current proposals list, does this seem fine to you or should we extend the deadline? Regarding the timing of the session: Three out of the four proposals have requested a duration of 45 minutes and the two others 30 minutes, that make all in all a total duration of 3h15 hours. The total timing of the Devroom has to be scheduled between 15:00 and 19:00 (4 hours maximum). So that leaves 45 minutes for our talk. Please note that this talk also needs to be submitted online, otherwise it will not be published in the program, Georgios will you do it?
