Hello Steph,

I think this is not such a good path to choose:
1. You will loose most of the people who did their 1'st presentation (and
    are bound to improve the next time)
2. It's very hard (impossible?) to know if someone has improved.

I think that in most conferences people choose the speakers they'll listen
to by reputation and relevance of topic.

I suggest that we won't exclude people, just publish the feedback forms
results so people will know which lecture was good and which wasn't.

IMO we should also need a minimum of feedback forms per speaker - In the
extreme if I'll have one listener and he won't like the lecture I'll get
a 0.

All the best,
--
