Dear Rahul and all concerned,
Here are few suggestions regarding the re-scheduling of events: (w.r.t.
http://fudcon.in/program/fudcon_schedule)
* It would be good to AVOID hackfests in the Auditorium. It is just too big
a place to handle a hands-on event. Let us schedule them in the class
rooms.
We aren't scheduling hackfests in the audi. I don't think hackfests
needs much of scheduling anyway. They are on the 3rd day and can be
pretty much ad-hoc
* We have 6 class rooms. If that is more than necessary, we can give
back
some rooms to the departments.
So audi, two seminal halls and two classrooms will be scheduled. We
are leaving one unscheduled for ad-hoc sessions and one for press
interviews on 4th and potentially on 5th as well. Press is planning to
do interviews post the keynote. I will update timings when I get to
hear back from others.
* The schedule looks very tightly packed with sessions one after
another.
If we have more facilities, then for a 1 Hour talk, let us consider a half
an hour break in between for the audience and the speaker to interact with
each other.
40+10+10 as Shakthi indicated.
* Some of the more popular/important technical talks can have 2
sessions on
2 days. Some of the hackfests can also get repeated.
Its already a very busy schedule but we can try to repeat some of the
workshops if it is possible.
The lunch time should be 12 noon to 1 pm. The current time of 1pm -
2 pm
does not match the students' mess timings.
Schedule has been adjusted.
Rahul
