Yup, correct!

Yes, I was thinking on this as well, but for this we first need to decide
which talks are going to be given. Further, there will not be that much
talks all together (9 full talks: 25min to 35 min), so making a difference
will be perhaps too much. But then again, we can try to place some with more
or less the same subject in the same session. The Lightning talks can be put
together in groups as well.

Are you attacking my graphical skills :-)))
Do you like it more as plain colors?

yes, but lightning talks could be interesting for everybody, so perhaps
people want to hear all lightning talks.
Other people are perhaps more for BoF (yes, Birds...) and would like to be
in all BoF's...
