I think name one person in not correct , Program committee was not lead by
Arvi for sure.
I feel bad to see individual name coming like this more often.
We can take offline if more explanation is needed.

I still think we should have two track beginners and intermediate/advances
which solve the problems.
In future once our advance talk submission increase we can rethink.
