Actually looking at the LGM schedule, I don't mind having a lighter and
more relaxed Text Layout this year.  I know I want to attend many of the
LGM talks, and I don't think there's been much happening since last time
we met to justify four full days full of talks anyway.

For now I encourage everyone to work on what they would like to
share/present (and add it to the wiki), and we will do a schedule
Thursday morning.
