[FOSS4G2016] Sessions planning

[Christian Willmes]

Hi,

I just want to give my two cents about the academic track. I would 
prefer an actual academic or education (or may it be called GeoForAll) 
track. Meaning, that we would have an actual track in the program, at 
least clearly marked in the program schedule overview, preferably one 
this way declared marked column, and maybe even with a dedicated 
location (session room). In Portland I found it quite confusing to see 
which presentations are part of the academic track. This way this would 
be really simple.

Cheers,
Christian
