I like that. Right now we're relying on manual flagging of submissions being moved from one track to another.

This is a great suggestion. I'll create a ticket for this. Thanks, Mike!

One other suggestion I would add for improvements next time:  for presentations that are moved to another track, have the tool record something in the comments showing what track it came from.  That gives you a little more insight into the intention of the submitter.  Just an idea.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi everyone,

It's time for Part One of the track chair process.

You have between now and this Sunday, February 7 at 11:59pm PST / Feb 8 at 7:59am UTC to complete this part. See the timeline below for reference.

During this time we ask you to:

  1.
Review the submissions within your specific track and identify any that need to be moved into another track category by clicking the "Suggest Category Change" button.
  2.
Flag any talks that are obvious test submissions and need to be removed. Note this by making a comment.
  3.
Include comments on any sessions that you want to flag for more discussion later during the selection process. *ONLY* track chairs will be able to view your comments. Speakers and submitters cannot see your comments.

Now, before you do anything else watch this tutorial video<http://www.openstack.org/track-chairs#tutorial>!

After you've watched the video you may access the Track Chair tool: www.openstack.org/track-chairs/<http://www.openstack.org/track-chairs/>

Log in with your email address and the password that you've set for the OpenStack website. If you need to reset your password, you can do that here<https://www.openstack.org/Security/lostpassword>. If you have any login issues please contact speakersupport at openstack.org<mailto:speakersupport at openstack.org>.

We'll be in touch later next week with another tutorial video and detailed steps on part two when you will use the track chair administrative tool to make your individual and team selections.

Cheers,
Kendall
