Dave,

It's 5 presentations an 1 alternate. I went ahead and updated your Lightning Talk total to 2.

For clarity, the basic ratios are this:

0-9 presentations get 1 alternate
10-19 presentations get 2 alternates
20-29 presentations get 3 alternates

Lightning talks were decide on a track by track basis, but they generally follow the same rules.

Hi Jimmy,

We have a question for the Telco & NFV Strategies track - is it 6
presentations, or 5 presentations and 1 alternate, that we are selecting?

Also, I asked about whether there's a possibility of a 2nd lightning
talk slot in a different email - how does that allocation work?

Thanks,
Dave.

Arkady,

That's not quite right. You have the following selections to make:

9 sessions + 1 alternate
2 lightning talks

You can see how to manage those by watching this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8meeot74BXk&t=17s

The numbers are spelled out as (0/10 selections) and (0/2 lightning talks selections)

As per my previous email, we're in the middle of tracking a bug, so please hold off on setting your final Team selection until that is resolved.

Thanks and let me know if you have further questions.

Jimmy

Jimmy,
Have the numbers had been loaded in for tracks?
Our track made our selection.
We choose 3 presentations, 8 lightning talks (2 sessions) and 1 alternate lightning talk.

Is the tool ready for us to accept these choice?
Thanks,
Arkady

Arkady,

We have not yet decided on final numbers for tracks or lightning talks. Once we have that, the numbers will appear in the Track Chair tool.  That's why I've suggested holding off on your selections until after voting :)

As far as alternates, yes, we provide options for 1-3 alternates, depending on tracks. That number will also be visible in your selection tool.

Cheers!
Jimmy

Jimmy,
Do we have any guidance on total slots per track?
Expect that track chairs have freedom on full presentations, lightning talks and panels as long as they fit into allotted time slots.
But want to check.

Finally,
Do we have one conditional/backup acceptance in case one of the accepted ones fell thru?

Thanks,
Arkady

Why is the email step required at all? If it's vendor-heavy or pushing a particular product, give thumbs down and move on.
