I think that having short and informal papers can be good (2-6 pages), but 
rejecting papers doesn't seem necessary.  LLVMconf isn't going to be some 
major respected academic conference even if we reject 90% of the papers 
:).  The goal would be to get some chunk of the community together and 
talking.
