Anyway, on http://drupalcon.org there are currently 22 proposed presentations (see http://barcelona2007.drupalcon.org/sessions), which means we are about 50 presentations short. *gasp*
While we certainly need more than 22, I think it would not be the worst thing in the world if we had scheduled hour-long periods scattered here with NO scheduled talks, so we could socialize, network, get some focused hacking done, etc. etc. We always end up doing this anyway, but because sessions are scheduled throughout the entire day, doing so means missing out on peoples' presentations. I only ended up getting to maybe half of what I wanted to in Brussels and OSCMS because I'm "the nice core developer" and get cornered a lot with questions from new people who want to know how to contribute, etc. and how can I resist that? :D It would be awesome to be able to say, "Sure, meet me over by the plaid couch during the morning break, and we'll talk." :) -Angie
