# How do we want to schedule talks?
<a id="legend"></a>
## Legend
- Green: no availability constraints
- Red: invalid because of availability constraint
- Dashed: IRC/pad Q&A, not live
<a id="gen-and-dev"></a>
## Option A: General and development tracks - 15/25 buffers, 60 min lunch, dev starts at 10
- Lots of space for Q&A and hallway conversations
- People can probably find lots of sessions that interest them throughout the day
- Need host/streamer(s) for dev track
- ![img](schedule-option-gen-and-dev.svg)
<a id="two-afternoons"></a>
## Option B: Two afternoon tracks (dev starts at 13:30), 10/20 buffer, 60 min lunch
- Some room to breathe, some dev talks still on the main track
- LUNCH: Ends at 13:45 after 13:30
- ![img](schedule-option-two-afternoon-tracks.svg)
<a id="one-afternoon"></a>
## Option C: One afternoon track, 5/10 minute buffers, 60 minute lunch
- Lightens up the schedule a little bit, allows us to test out tracks without committing too much
- Needs a host/streamer for the other track
- ![img](schedule-option-one-afternoon-track.svg)
<a id="no-irc"></a>
## Option D: Remove buffer from non-live talks
- Considerations:
- Frees up about 20 minutes on each day, so we might be able to squeeze in two more talks sideways.
- Pretty frenetic
- ![img](schedule-option-only-live-qa.svg)
<a id="non-round"></a>
## Option E: Reduce buffer to non-round numbers (3/7 minutes, like 2021); 10min break 30min lunch
- Schedule looks too precise, sets expectations; timekeeping is more challenging
- Pretty frenetic
- Could probably use shifts for hosts or streamers
- ![img](schedule-option-non-round-buffer.svg)
<a id="long"></a>
## Option F: Pack everything in one long day
- Considerations:
- Difficult to accommodate extra talks
- Host/streamer have a very long intense day
- Ideas:
- Split up hosting duties into shifts (volunteers can read the questions)
- Use prerecorded intros and outros
- Split up streaming duties into shifts (volunteers can adjust audio volume, switch to the right BBB room)
- Set up cloud streaming so that streamers can work in shifts
