Please note that this is a draft schedule. We do not expect the

scheduling of your panels to change drastically, but we are still
working out some of the details around opening hours for the
galleries, and coordinating panels with workshops and lounges, etc,
so the session times may be adjusted slightly. Please note too that
there may be some typographical errors, which we will correct before
the final draft is published.
