Proposed schedule

This is, as all future iterations will be, a DRAFT. At unconferences, schedules change all the time.

To explain a bit more, the conference planning committee selected five workshops from those proposed, one for each session. Each day of the conference, the first order of business will be to identify other topics of interest. We can have up to four concurrent sessions at a time. A workshop is no more privileged than a discussion, we just felt that some sessions needed prep or equipment and so wanted to give their facilitators advanced notice.
