[EuroPython] Lack of diversity within selected talks

[Martijn Faassen]

Hey Holger,

Thanks for your answer, it certainly helped clear up things for me about 
what was going on with talk selection - that as much as 50 slots were 
remaining was not clear, for instance. I also agree that the double 
blind selection process does not fit the goals of EuroPython so much -- 
I already gave feedback on that elsewhere in this thread.

I complained earlier that publishing this half-baked schedule was rather 
frustrating for those of us who submitted talks but whose talks were not 
selected. We're in some kind of limbo where we don't know whether the 
talk is rejected or accepted, which feels rather odd.

On the other hand, if the half baked schedule triggered a rebalancing 
for diversity that otherwise might not have happened I'd call it a good 
thing after all.

Regards,

Martijn
