Hi Tim,
There's no magic number, but that's being discussed by the speaker
subcommittee now and it's something the larger MesosCon program
committee will need to decide in the coming weeks. The # of accepted
talks will largely depend on the number of tracks we break into, and
number of / length of keynotes. Stay tuned!
Dave
