Re: [802SEC] Tutorial List for July Plenary in San Francisco
Roger, Well, it's worked fairly well so far but as Tony astutely observed as the demand continues to increase we may have to resort to some more drastic alternatives. You can't stuff 10 pounds of tutorials into the proverbial 5 pound bag !!!
In this business we just have to learn as we go. :-)
Thanx, Buzz

Buzz,
Thanks. This sounds like an effective approach.

First-Come-First-Served is not our only rule, there is room for judgements about the greater-good for all 802 attendees, and the fairness rule which says that no WG should have a second slot guaranteed before other groups have had a chance for at least one, unless they can justify having 2 under the greater-good rule. So I would expect that any later requests arriving before the deadline will be reviewed and some aditional options considered: increase to 3 slots per night, offer some possibly parallel slots where there are clearly disjoint interest areas, or arrange to post-pone one or more topics to our next session in Novemebr. We do our best to be as flexible as possible but there are limits to what is reasonable.
