You shouldn't included anything in the opening talk you weren't planning to.
I remember the description of the first-timers event wasn't very clear to some
of us during the discussion. Becase we welf that some of the things pointed
there overlap with the opening talk. Or that's what some of us understood
from the event description:
>From https://summit.debconf.org/debconf14/meeting/49/debconf-first-timers-session/:
"
Tell first-comers about DebConf and how it works, give some info and some anecdotes, tell them how they can help.
I can/will flesh this out as soon as the event is scheduled.
"
Our reject message was meant to have the submitter coordinating with
the team to avoid duplicating topics. We rejected the talk for the main
schedule but we expected this to be schedule as ad-hoc.
I don't understand why the submitter waited one month to discuss this since
the reject messages were sent.
