[ubuntu-us-mi] Penguicon planning

[t jagoda]

The Head of Tech Programming (read: Me) thinks this is a good idea.

If you want to qualify for the $10 panelist discount, you'll need to write a
1,000 or so word white paper on what you want to talk about.
Panelists/Presenters who dont feel like writing a paper giving insight to
their panel/talk will get the full-rate charge this year.  We changed the
rules this year, because people abused the
three-panel-then-you-get-a-discount policy by just not showing up and/or by
putting themselves on panels /just/ to get the discount, and then doing a
crappy job on them.
