Voting results for Sessions

Voting results for Sessions

POSTED BY Andy Lowe on February 22, 2010

I'm just wondering if the results of the voting will be open to the public? Will there be any transparency in the session selection? What are the selection criteria?
Thanks for all the hard work putting the con together.

The votes are in.

Hello Andy,

You're welcome. We're so happy to be able to bring the Drupal community together here in San Francisco.

Jenn Lampton posted the following on community/news:

Thanks to everyone for providing us with 408 wonderful sessions to choose from! We are busily sending out email confirmations to the speakers, and beginning our process of organizing all the approved sessions into a daily schedule.

We wanted to share a bit about our larger selection process for sessions:

Over 12,000 votes were cast as part of the voting process and we chose the sessions primarily based on votes received, with some balancing considerations for similar proposals, speakers who proposed multiple sessions, and our topic specific tracks. Sessions were chosen by our conference programming committee, and reviewed by our 6 track committees. Special thanks to the 21 people who helped in our selection process.

We are currently assembling the schedule and will be announcing the full conference program on March 15, 2010.

Please let us know if you have any more questions.
