[FOSS4G2016] [Program] Call for Presentations draft

[Volker Mische]

Hi Carmen,

I'm not sure if I understand it correctly.

Do you mean that the schedule page will contain all the contents of the
current draft, plus the format for the workshops and the academic track?

I think it should be a page separate from the schedule page which
contains that information. I agree that the overlap will be huge, so I'm
OK having a single page for the general track, workshops and academic track.

Cheers,
  Volker
