not an opinion of Chris or his presentation for which I have no idea..... its a comment on the COI position and practicalities


If Chris has to recuse himself from the decision about his presentation because of a COI would he not also have to recuse himself from decisions on the other presentations for the same COI in that he would benefit from them being declined...

A Conflict Of Interest has two methods of attainment
  1.  by achieving a direct positive outcome 
  2.  by achieving a negative outcome for the competition, thus engineering a positive outcome

Hi Chris, 

From my earlier experience of Wikimania Program Commitee, you can still submit a presentation even if you were a member of PC. 
In that case, you can exclude yourself from the decision of your presentation as "Conflict of Interest".

Hopes it helps,

OK, but  do  let  me know because while I  fully  appreciate  that  if I  am  on  the Committee I  will  recuse myself from  making  a presentation submission, If I’m  not  on  the Committee I  will  make a submission, but  I  believe my  priority  is being  on  the Commission if possible. My  presentation  is not  a priority.

Regards,

Chris
