We will make every effort to ensure a registration spot for your first two presenters.
Please confirm by responding to this email as soon as you are able. Once we receive your confirmation, there will be further details shared with you.

== Third meeting Notes ==
Google hangout, November 16th, 1 PM Eastern time
=== Review proposals ===
==== Decide if more space available or can accept all ====
* We would like more rooms to accommodate most / all proposals. This needs to go through LPC, budget-wise. Anna will bring it to that meeting. Will act on assumption that we won't have extra space at the hotels.
* We will also base this decision on voting.
* We can also look at topic area duplication if anything seems egregious.
==== Get framework in place for moving preconferences to spaces as voting/interest measures come in ====
Christina showed us the spreadsheet she was using.
=== Voting mechanism ===
We will not use the dieboldatron. We will use a google form, with the following organization:
* 2 questions, only one answer on each.
* Duplicate "either AM or PM" entries into both questions.
* Duplicate full-day sessions with a note to vote in both time slots.
* Explain the form in pretty significant detail on the form itself.
* specify that we won't be able to take all proposals.
* We will try to open voting noon tomorrow.
==== Move forward with choices ====
Detailed timeline:
(It's tight)
* Voting ends December 2nd (5pm Pacific).
* Notification on the 4th.
* Confirmation by the 7th .
* Final confirmed list ready by end of day on the 7th.
=== Contact point people ===
==== Assign folks to particular sessions for contact/follow-up purposes ====
We will split up the point-presenters among us so that each workshop has a point of contact for info (in both directions)
=== Other? ===
* Future agenda item: Central page on website where we / organizers can post links and instructions.
* What are we responsible for day-of?
** Make sure everyone knows where they're going (between different buildings)
** Once workshops are distributed into rooms, each committee member should be point-person for co-located presenters.
=== Action items ===
* Eric will start putting together our follow-up / confirmation form.
** This can probably be combined with the "speaker profile" form that the website committee desires:
*** discussion: https://github.com/code4lib/2016.code4lib.org/issues/75#issuecomment-141982890
*** example form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1x5oYp831qMd-nmtyrH9By-jGCzPzSsJfz4UXnsR-vE4/viewform?c=0&w=1
* Anna will send a link to previously-discussed profile info along with the link to meeting minutes (see links added above).
* Christina will keep working on the form, please help (it's a shared google doc)
* Andrea will send out a group email notifying everyone who sent in proposals letting them know that we have a vote / won't accept all workshops this year. This will go out today.
* Anna will communicate with website committee so they can update the site with the timeline.
* Anna will communicate with LPC about hotel space.
