[now with unmangled hyperlink] to your comments about the guidelines debate, and the group photo. In fact, the group photo was scheduled in the provisional timetable for Sunday morning (perhaps an ambitious time of day for bisexuals), but it didn't appear in the programme, and on the weekend there was no announcement about when it would be. I had to leave the closing plenary early (had already arranged transport based on the provisional end time of 2.15 - again, no announcement they had changed this) so missed the photo and most of the plenary.
Sorting out registration also needs to be a priority for BiCon organisers - registration had shut by 10pm on Thursday (not much use if you were travelling after work in Glasgow or London - I remember in 2000 they were open until well past 11pm), and wasn't open before the first Friday workshops. Friends of mine had already paid for day registration on Saturday, but again nobody could register them until about 10:20 - by which time none of the workshops in the first slot were admitting latecomers. And nobody suggested to them they just walk in and register later. I don't know if it was just an unexpected shortage of people to do it or what.
