YAPC traditionally has an opening plenary session on the first morning, and plenary sessions before the lightning talks each afternoon. However, on the second and third mornings there usually is no plenary session. 

This year we’re going to add a 10 minute plenary session at 8:40am before each day’s events. We’ll use this time to announce changes in the schedule, sell raffle tickets, announce daily contests, and generally keep you informed so that you can get the most out of that day’s activities.
