jeffreyabStarting my review of programming:
Missing from last year was 10 pm panels on Friday, but we had only one less panel and one of those ran for 2 hours;
10 AM panels on Saturday but last year mixed in signings with panels;
11 AM panels on Sunday except for the whip demo and a coffee with and
All gaming events because we went to open gaming which appears to have worked very well the room was always full.
Fewer big name author panelists balanced by using workshoppers on panels at their request.
Readings in consuite too noisy and clashed with folks wanting to eat at tables.
Press Room for zine and Infusion newsletter. Hotel computer was very handy for printing stuff off.
Based on attendance we could split Denn i and Denn II and have two rooms on Friday.
Layout in Med Room needs to be watched, someone moved tables and dessert eaters flowed into gaming area which did not happen last year. Also need to leave tables empty for Junk pile wars at 6 on Saturday hide them from gamers.
Art Room was chaotic but offered a wide range of presentations from anime to sculpture to books.
Needs a room boss/scheduler of presentations.
Green Room's location needs to be part of personal schedules and repeated by person doing panelist checkin.
List of past GOH's etc. expected to attend and badges for them, Fan GOH's reminded of Fan GOH panel.
Bill Kolosa to run Anime/Video Room next year with equipment in pet cage. Spirited Away anime by day balanced with Ghost in shell at night?
All departments to have prelim list panels in by mid November if possible.

I let my prejudice get the better of me with fan programming, let the bad experiences outway the good ones.
I also wanted to see how lit/sci/art played out before I got into soliciting fan, but I got distracted with some details and that was about when my email problems started.
I did contact all the local fans we used last year when I contacted the pros. However only a few people came forward with ideas and those people were on the program.
As I said to Alex I think someone from Ann Arbor should put together fan panels as they have a better idea of the talent pool.
