[Open-source-gamedev-devroom] RFC: Initial schedule for the open source games dev room at fosdem2012

[jeremy rosen]

I am not sur we need a lunch break, since we won't all eat at the same
time... It would probably be better to use that time for switching more
easily...

> * Try to get all 9 proposed talks into the list, following desired times

> * Try to be fair to all talks.
> * Try to group "somehow related" stuff like eg the Data Driven topics.

> The basic result is that I went for a schedule with 45min per speaker with

> This is my initial listing. Some general comments right now:
