A concept much similar to this, is called the Lightning Talks. In this
case, some extended timespan (two hours straight) is reserved for
presentations of 5-10 minutes each. Submission rules are easier and
you can submit talks until either the schedule is full or the schedule
is printed. Well, I don't really know, but that's the impression that
I had. That concept has been part of the YAPC (Perl) conferences, so I
suppose that you may be able to find information about the concept
there.
