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_Resour ces_.28OER.29
2) http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule#Cultural_Heritage_and_W ikipedia 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_Hypertex t_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,

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. :-)
Cormac

Dear All,
I have just made the "final schedule"* for Wikimania 2010 available online here: http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule.
Dear authors, I was doing my best to plan the sessions according to your requests regarding time needed for presentations/workshops/etc. and your availability. However, I still need you to review it and tell me if you can be present on given time.
Best regards,
