Er, sorry?  I see that now, I think part of my quick response was that I 
felt guilty about having taken so long to get back to him and knowing he 
wants to nail stuff down.  And as Frank and Gary are the two speakers 
involved, and both seemed fine with it, I guess at some level I thought 
that their feedback was sufficient.

Well, to some extent I don't know that it's ours to give up?  If you 
have some compelling talk that we should try to give in that slot than 
we can try to pitch it, but it does seem like a bit much if there's a 
full 45 minutes just about OSGeo, with even more individual projects 
also talking.

I'm sorry, the next time such a decision comes up I'll leave more time 
for feedback.
