Sinpozium - timetable and other info

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It's less than a week to Sinpozium!

We've drafted a timetable - please check it out and let us know if:
- we've included something that you'll not be able to do
- if we've scheduled you for a time that you're not going to be available for
- if there's something else you'd like us to add
- if you've got any questions.

We've tried to build flexibility into the timetable (and can't guarantee that it will be followed strictly), will try to make sure there are plenty of breaks during the weekend, and there's time for unscheduled discussions and other stuff as it comes up during the weekend.

We'll be there from about 9:30am, people are welcome to arrive whenever convenient, and we won't get underway with anything specific until 10am.

Registration mostly consists of geting a nametag (which we do ask that people keep on during the weekend - it makes things so much easier, especially for people who don't already know many other attendees, and for me, cause I suck at remembering names).

There's info on the venue, travel options and more at the website.

If you have not already filled out the survey, please do so!

Presentations/videos/slideshows will be shown via a laptop hooked up to a data projector, so please bring files on disc/USB stick/external hard drive (we don't want to be switching laptops around if we can avoid it). A variety of file formats will be acceptable, but if it can be played by VLC, that's a good indication it will be ok. If you've got specific technical questions, comment here or email us at sinpozium(at)gmail.com.

FYI, the chairs in the function room are slightly padded, and rather than try to quantify this, have a picture. You may wish to bring a cushion along to increase your comfort, as desired/needed.

Please let us know if you have any questions about any aspects of next weekend :)
