As one of the people signed up for the morning session, I'd like to object. I wanted to attend the morning Blacklight session for more background and deeper understanding, even though I am also going to the afternoon Hydra session. I also would like this, as I'm pretty sure I'm going to use Blacklight for my new technology stack, but I'm not sold on Hydra yet (I don't know enough to make that call, and we use DSpace already, instead of Fedora). But even if we go with the full Hydra stack, I'll still need to have a good Blacklight understanding for proper customization, right?

So, personally, I'd still like to see the morning session, though I certainly don't think you should hold it just for me.
