Schedule 2010

We have now confirmed that we have 2 presentation rooms. Room 1 holds around 100 people and we will use that for the main Community / Business stream. Room 2 holds about 50 people and we will may that more of a technical stream for Designers & Developers. That will include sessions that get you “under the hood”.

If you have an interesting WordPress project or topic that you would like to present on please contact us and let us know what you are thinking. We have names in most timeslots but these will likely swap around a bit.

Talks can be anything from 15 mins to 50m. Question times were very popular last year so please expect questions. In the afternoon we expect some lightening sessions of 10-15mins and some Panel discussions . On Sat there won’t necessarily be two streams at all times. This allows for some flexibility on space for impromtu workshops and genius bar activities.

We expect that Sunday will finish at about 1 pm with lunch. Sunday will be more flexible and open ended.

The following is a draft schedule for the 2010 and will undergo several small modifications. Start/Finish and Lunch/Break times will remain unchanged. These details will change prior to the event. Please check this page the evening before the event to see if there are any changes.
