@stilkov This contradicts the idea to accept talks based on an anonymous procedure.

@stilkov actually I don't like to evaluate talks without knowing who does them.

@ewolff Me neither. I totally understand why people see a strong risk of bias with this approach, though.

@stilkov @ewolff An anonymous process can eliminate much bias in selection, but is best for a list of candidates, not a final selection.
