Hi, I'm still not appearing as a speaker in "Governance of Fedora under Fedora.next" (Cf. proposal #76, I'm listed in it)

The schedule looks good except for one thing: the Fedora.next joint session was scheduled for one hour. It would be ideal if it could be extended by at least an additional half-hour (possible to eat into lunch, maybe? Pardon the pun). The format of that talk is going to be a three-part event: an overview of Fedora.next, a status update from the individual working groups and then a Q&A session. I think one hour is a bit tight for the amount of material we need to cover.

Running over is why it's right before lunch indeed. > The format of that talk is going to be a three-part event: an overview > of Fedora.next, a status update from the individual working groups and > then a Q&A session. I think one hour is a bit tight for the amount of > material we need to cover. Server, Workstation, and Env & Stacks all have their own sessions. There's also a Fedora.next advocating talk, a governance workshop, a talk about Fedora.next and Spins, and an F22 Fedora.next session. We already have a LOT of Fedora.next content. Repeating a bunch of content that is already split out into separate sessions isn't a good use of anyone's time. Make your overviews and updates in the joint session short and it should be doable within an hour or a bit over.

Thanks to everyone for giving our schedule a good look, you caught several bugs, and we've fixed them. Here is the revised schedule.

I will be teaching/doing sphix for people to start making new docs for different projects and I guess Jared's one is on Fedora documentation.

Just wanted to confirm that Flock event owners will reach out to Flock speakers for subsidy or do I need to open a ticket on some trac? I did check "Need * funding" while registering.
