The last couple of years doing the layout have been a lot of work due to 
chasing images, chasing texts, fixing spelling errors (much later in the 
pipeline than expected), checking licenses and making late additions to 
the content.
If I am to do the design again, here is some things I need from the rest 
of the team:
* The coordinator needs to be the one that makes sure deadlines are 
followed and chase after those that are lagging behind. Possibly cut 
articles that just doesn't make it in time.
* Texts needs to be proofread Before they go into the layout. Not once 
they are in the layout or after the thing are printed and done.
* Finding good images and checking their licenses for each and every 
article is very time consuming so I don't want to be the one doing that 
again. Either the author of the text or the coordinator needs to be 
responsible for this.

For this year in specific, I can also only commit to the layout if we 
are able to put the content together way before GUADEC. Since I'm 
organizing the conference, I imagine myself being quite busy in the time 
that precedes it.
