Topic Timing in the Agenda

Topics will be allocated to time slots one week before the event and then need to be 'claimed' at the event by someone who wishes to leade it at the event. Between now and then suggested topics will be added as they are raised. Any topics with the highest interest will be allocated to different time slots so they don't conflict. Those with no or very low interest will be cancelled. At the event, extra time can be spent on the above topics as people are willing and new topics can be added as necessary.

There are thus four 'official' time slots for peer-to-peer topics which covers 75% of the event agenda. If you stayed for the full time of each topic, you could participate in four topics. However you also are free to switch between topics at any time, so if you are not learning anything, participating or just want to explore a few different topics then switch.
