Hmm, my first reaction was: "What! A break this soon in the morning?". Then I started to play around with the schedule and realized it's the only way not to have three talks back to back. So yeah, great job! You missed the second talk though; the schedule should be read this way: 9:30-10:15am First Talk/BoF 10:15-11:00am Morning Tea/Coffee Break 11:00-11:45am Second Talk/BoF 12:00pm-1:00pm Lunch Break 1:00pm-1:45pm Third Talk/BoF 2:00pm-2:45pm Fourth Talk/BoF 2:45pm-3:30pm Afternoon Tea/Coffee Break 3:30pm-4:15pm Fifth Talk/BoF 4:30-5:15pm Sixth Talk/BoF -- pollo On 2016-04-30 19:43, Allison Randal wrote: > Different countries have different ideas of civilized hours for running > conference sessions.
