Sorry
is we sound harsh, but we have the responsibility for the quality of
MySQL UC sessions, and the only way to ensure quality is to be picky in
our choice. Here are a few more rules of the game for the next
conference.
Make sure you know the subject you propose.
We
may ask you to prove your claims. We have had a few surprises during
the last conference, with sessions lasting 20 minutes because the
speaker had exhausted the topics. We are going to be stricter in our
acceptance. We will accept some proposals conditionally. If that
happens, we will inform the authors that we need more material before
the final acceptance. If the material is not provided, we replace the
session with some other proposal.
