Concerns left:None

Mode of direct invitation

We will decide for two groups of contributors to invite directly:

  1. 18 persons who are invited directly before the CfC is published (hot group)
  2. 10 persons who are invited directly at the time the CfC is published (warm group)

    This group is ranked and we will select as many persons as from the hot group can not come.

Decision making for direct invitations

There should be a poll in the Wiki about all the ideas which came up so far. The poll will be done using a rating facility in the Wiki. [ox-en] is to be informed about the poll so every one willing can give a vote.

The resulting ranking will be used by [pox] for a final decision making on the hot and the warm group.

List of direct invitations

Based on the voting result there were an adjustment which ended up in the hot group and the warm group.
