• This is for the same app as CodeLand 2021, but in the new event CodeLand 2022, as set up here

Change descriptive text to say “What problem is your talk solving?”

We already allow reviewers to delete their rating on a proposal after they give it, via the little trash can here:

Presumably, this would be so that they can re-rate it after getting more information on it, but it's also there in case someone clicked on a specific rating by mistake.

Can we also make it an option for reviewers to be able to either edit or delete their internal comments here?

Several of our reviewers are on their first program committee, and may want to amend their comments to the rest of the team and/or delete them entirely after reading other internal comments.

• Required
• "For review committee" section
• Short answer
• Descriptive text: “What resources and research do you plan to include in your talk, if any? (i.e., interviews, reports, primary sources, academic journals, etc.)

Change descriptive text to say “Explain why you’re the best person to give this talk. This is less about expertise (which is not a requirement), but more about the relationship between the talk and the speaker, and finding a good fit. Feel free to include your passion, past experience, previous roles, etc.”

Change the default option from “General - No Suggested Track” to be “Other -- describe below” and trigger a short answer field for the proposer to use to fill in their talk’s theme.

Change descriptive text to say “This is the place to outline the specifics of your talk: what topics will you cover, if you’ll have any special elements (i.e., code samples, video samples, etc.), what you’d like the audience to take away from your talk, and how you’d like them to feel afterwards.”

This is a leftover remnant from porting this over from RubyConf/RailsConf, where the field we're calling Talk Outline was previously Abstract. The way Abstract was used, it was wise to put a ~600-character limit on it, since these were going to be copied over to the conference program.

That's not the case for the Talk Outline for CodeLand, and moreover, when proposers have been receiving this error message, it discourages them from writing as much in Talk Outline as we may want to hear.

Can we simply remove the character limit completely from this field? This is an open CFP, but as we only have about 25 submissions so far, we think this would be a good time to change it and then just update the people who've already submitted that they can expand their outlines now if need be.
