Dear All,
I have a little update regarding the schedule. The following
sessions were moved:
1)
http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule#Wikiversity
changed with http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule#Open_Educational_Resources_.28OER.29
2)
http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule#Cultural_Heritage_and_Wikipedia
changed with http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule#Wikis_of_the_World
3)
http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule#Wikipedia_Credibility
changed with http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule#Wikipedia_as_a_Hypertext_System_.2F_What_can_Wikipedia_learn_from_.28....29
Regarding Cormac’s question: “What would be useful
now is to see exactly when each presentation will happen in each block, since
people might want to hope between some sessions in different blocks.” We
are going to include this info in the schedule – we want to avoid “fist-fights”
in the venue.
Regarding session moderators/chairs - we need your help! If you are
going to attend a session “X” and you are knowledgeable in the area
covered in this session you can sign up on our page with the schedule next to
the session “X”. Session moderation duties include making sure
speakers are where they need to be, keeping track of time, etc.
Best regards,
Jacek Jankowski

Crazy talk like that, Cormac,
and you might find yourself ending up as a session moderator!
All: I suggest self-organization, and when in doubt, fist-fights. It might also
be good to start a page on the wiki for all of the lunchtime meetings that
people are proposing having with various small groups, since this schedule
looks rather packed otherwise. What about http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Lunch_meetings
?

Hi Jacek,
Thanks very much - well done. :-) I really like how you have
the schedule at a glance, with similarly themed presentations grouped together
in a block. What would be useful now is to see exactly when each presentation
will happen in each block, since people might want to hope between some
sessions in different blocks. I would imagine, if they haven't given prior
notice, that presenters will be available in their given time slots - no?
Looking forward to it. :-)
