YES!!!!

I did mention the Perl Conference like lightening talks before but got no
where with them. Allowing shorter talks would make it easier to write a
talk and hopefully allow more people to speak.

Time them for the start of the event so the more experienced people can lay
in bed and getup even later? That way you can get there a little later for
the normal GLLUG stuff while the beginners can have somehting more focused
to them.

Also hows about (if we have a venue that permits space-wise) having two or
three hands on sessions running at the same time where its a lot less
formal with different people chipping in comments or just watching someone
do a physical walk through of some software or similar?

Seldom if ever.
