Dear Matthew, (01)
It is about time we should tie down the agenda details for the Nov-16
event, start a session page on it, and announce it. (02)
1. Could you firm that up within, say, the next 2~3 days, please. (If
you need a bit more time, please let me know.) [My suggestion is that
you can decide on the best, or the best 2~3 options, throw it out to
the forum, drawing special attention and concurrence from the
programming team, and then come to a final decision.] (03)
2. In particular, I need: (04)
(a) a topic (title) (05)
(b) an abstract (06)
(c) the speakers, or list of speakers (if more than one) (07)
(d) profiles of the speaker(s), if that's not already on our wiki (I
can follow-up on this, if, at the minimum, I have the person's e-mail
address), (08)
(e) if more than one speaker, the specific (i) title, and (ii)
abstract of each person's talk, (09)
(f) make sure they know the time of the event, and are available for
the whole session. (I really hope we don't make a habit of people
coming to our session, speak their 15 minutes and leave .... that's
not 'community'.) (010)
(g) make sure speakers are aware and accept our IPR policy (see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?WikiHomePage#nid32), and (011)
(h) have a chance to review our Speaker tips, especially on how slides
should be prepared (see:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?VirtualSpeakerSessionTips) (012)
[you might consider pointing them to the details of a similar event,
e.g. our kick-off event for this series at:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2006_10_12 ] (013)
Again, you will make the final calls for this series (if the team can
not come to a consensus). (014)
Thanks & regards. =ppy
