Dear Drupal Community

During the preparations of the content for the Munich DrupalCon the responsible track chairs found themselves discussing - at length - the selection process for proposed sessions. Within minutes the issue of voting came up and after hours we found ourselves still talking of the problems, advantages, risks, correctness etc... of voting. To make a long story short, it became clear that most regarded the voting process as a means for the community to let us know what they like, but, and here comes the problem, past experience show that the results of the voting do not provide a good indicator of session quality, relevance, interest in the topic, or attendance.
