[okfn-discuss] OKCon 2009: CFP + submissions system

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for bringing this back on the agenda!

Sounds good to me!

Perfect.

I have some remarks:

* is the date for OKCon meanwhile finalized - would be nice to have that 
fixed so people can add it to their calendar once we send it around
* I would suggest to shift the submission deadline to the end of January 
* we are already a little late and I guess February/March is sufficient 
for reviewing
* from my point of view technology and law do not fit well together, I 
would rather combine Law with Society and Democracy - these seem to be 
slightly closer, although Technology and Law could be one also a topic 
in either of both categories.

Best,

Sören
