Also, FWIW, we (organizers) suggested "genres" for submissions to Flock from the first event, to help encourage talks that we thought would be valuable to the community. Having an overarching theme would be interesting, but I'd want it to be something that Flock inherited from a community focus, not an event only thing.
I think a key element of this is going to be driving the idea that these themes are not specific to Flock. (not to restate you only). That is something hte council and others can do with additional communication, blog posts, etc.

Isuggested some examples that fit the style of theme that I wanted(thinking about impact on the project or the community, rather thantechnology-centric tracks), and no one else had any other ones, sothat's what we got. (I mean, I don't think my suggestions were bad perse, but we probably good have done better with more input.)--Matthew MillerFedora Project Leader_______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list -- council-discuss@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to council-discuss-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org _______________________________________________council-discuss mailing list -- council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe send an email to council-discuss-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
