[LGM] Draft program LGM2013: Future Tools

Hey!

Thanks for your comments.

>> I've just one question: are people really going to sit till 8-9pm?

Hopefully they'll walk around too, meet in the café, participate in a workshop? The schedule is a mix of Spanish timing and the wish to have long breaks for meetings and workshops. In short: yes, I think this will work.

>> Other than that, I'm a bit concerned about "Character animation in

Yes, you might be right -- will see if we can change the puzzle (there will be no doubt some overlapping audiences with three to four workshops parallel)

The exhibition, meeting rooms etc. will all be open; maybe we need to make more clear that there is also room to schedule additional BOFs etc.

We proposed to start at this time to give people from Europe a chance to arrive on the day, but still have a decent programme to look forward to.

Spanish dinner time usually does not start before 21:00 so maybe it all works out if you arrange your jetlag in the right direction :-)
