NI Week session registration

[John Lokanis]

Anyone know when the registration system will be online? I have already picked out the sessions I want to attend from the preliminary program and am ready to build my schedule. Last year some of the sessions filled up fast so I don't want to miss out!

I had the same question but want to ask you where you saw the preliminary schedule? All I can find is a listing of some of the events.

You have to register ahead for the sessions?

[John Lokanis]

Attendance is limited. Maybe since you are/were a presenter, you get special privileges...

[David Wisti]

You didn't have to register for sessions before. Did they change something this year?

[John Lokanis]

I had to register last year. They had this crazy 'wingate' system that you would use to sign up and you had to rank your preferences for sessions that were overlapping.

I hadn't heard of registration for individual sessions either. Are you sure that wasn't a system for just managing your own schedule?

Looks like it is up:

And since it puts you on a wait list if the session is full, I do think registration is required and is on a first come first served basis.

So, don't wait too long to build your schedule!
