I don't see any problem with this... as long as everybody comes to MY
talk.

Not to burst anyone's bubble or anything, but I've never liked poster
sessions. First of all, I stink at making posters, and second of all, I
don't much like reading them either. Could be because the bright colors
scare me, or it could be because I'm not the only geek who stinks at
making them :-)

Instead of (or perhaps in addition to) a poster session, I'd love to see
a lightning talk session. http://perl.plover.com/lightning-talks.html
(Pardon the reference to the 'P' language). While I've never been to
one, it seems easy to put on, and good fun for everyone. Plus it feeds
right in to our inability to concentrate on anything for more than a
few....

What were we talking about?
