We proposed that Ge should lead the first half of the workshop. It
would be great if Julian and Alberto do the same with the second half of
the day. I don't think we should focus solely on these two though.
I don't think a hands-on workshop would work, there is not enough time
to learn a system and requiring that people install the system before
the workshop starts would be disruptive, especially with people coming
and going throughout. Also remember that we need to be open to both
programmers and non-programmers, and we have up to eleven people coming
over, and it would be nice to involve them all. If we don't, then we
could lose the chance to get everyone festival passes.
The proposed title is:
"Introducing ChucK, feedback.pl, fluxus, jitlib, noisepattern,
PureEvents, redFrik and The Thingee towards Live Algorithm Performance"
I think we should keep this proposal.
So I would say, 30-40 minute presentations by the workshop leaders,
followed by a series of 15-20 minute presentations by everyone else.
Then there can be a non-disruptive install-a-thon with a bit of
tutoring.

Yes I did, and asked for a bit of clarification, will forward his reply.
