[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen Conference Registration

[Kathy Lussier]

Hi Rose!

Thank you for asking the question as I've been meaning to share this 
information on the list for a few weeks now. In the conference 
pre-planning survey we conducted in August, we asked for feedback on 
some variations of the schedule for this year's conference.  We found a 
majority of the respondents (68%) indicated that the schedule they found 
most appealing was one that started with longer tutorials on the  
hackfest day (Wednesday), incorporated the interest group meetings with 
other programming on the main conference days (Thursday and Friday), and 
ended with regular programming on Saturday.

At this time, the program committee is planning to build a program based 
on this schedule. Our hope is to get one technical tutorial and one end 
user tutorial on the hackfest day. Of course, this schedule depends on 
getting good program proposals for these tutorials, but this is the 
general direction we would like to head in.

Feel free to let me know if you have any other questions!

Kathy
