... and anyway VDVsx happens to be the developer of BlueMaemo, so I really think it's obvious that if you want and can do a Fremantle demo + future plans session or something along these lines you are going to be accepted no matter where you are or hide.

Ok, as someone usually say in this forums "less talk more action" 
.
Here is a draft of a possible 'Call for content template': http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_Summit_2...ntent_template
Modifications/corrections are welcome

- Fremantle & Harmattan sound like a sensible theme, but you know more than us on whether this'll be a "You got your fremantle devices last week, here's what can be done with them" or "so, fremantle devices have been out for 4 months now here's the state of the ecosystem" or "as you know, we're shipping fremantle devices next month".
Frankly, this is really going to complicate the planning of the Summit this year. People might even start watching the Summit schedule as a kind of predictor.

Let's agree on the open questions at
- Who will organise the schedule? A committee, the organiser, the council?
- Do we need a call for content?
- If we have a call for content, what is the schedule for proposals & acceptance?
- Themes? It seems like the core themes will be Fremantle & Harmattan
- Schedule - what's the best way to handle planning & putting the schedule online? Wiki again? Or another solution? (Dave says: Having used it in the past, I really like Expectnation, although it's not free software)
For a team I think indeed action is really needed and I personally did not do enough yet(so what are the chances or recovery
)

Doing real html you mean? A garage project? Latex? For print you mean?
I really would think it twice before leaving the useful and flexible wiki.
Alright, asking people to fill themselves the slots with their proposals was a bit too heavy. Let's just ask them to list proposals in a linear wiki page following a basic template provided.

I have had the pleasure of integrating slides and talk information for the last summit and to say it was a pain in the proverbial is an understatement. I got .pdf's .html's, .jpegs and worst of all I got screen captures (ctr-prscrn) from some of them. For me, if I do get to cover the event again, I would love .jpegs and if your feeling generous, an expected time in your talk that you expect the slide to be 'shown'.

Ummm, not wanting to talk out of place but the event needs a coordinator. A guy (or gal) who is a sole point of contact that will deal with all issues that arise. Last year is was a combination of Quim, c-base, brontide, and myself. I don't think a larger event would cope with such a loose organization.

But I agree with you this is a open source conference, and I don't have any other intention than help, as I've done in the past in several events
