Subject: [FOSDEM] Call for participation: main tracks and developer 
rooms
Date: Tuesday 06 Aug 2013, 09:34:59
From: Philip Paeps <philip@xxxxxxxxxx>
To: FOSDEM <fosdem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

FOSDEM offers open source developers a place to meet, share ideas and
collaborate.  Renowned for being highly developer-oriented, the event
brings together some 5000+ geeks from all over the world.

The fourteenth edition will take place on 1 and 2 February 2014 at the
usual location: ULB Campus Solbosch in Brussels. We now invite 
proposals for main track presentations and developer rooms.

Previous editions have featured tracks centered around security,
operating system development, community building, and many other 
topics. Presentations are expected to be 50 minutes long and should 
cater to a varied technical audience.  The conference covers travel 
expenses and arranges accommodation for accepted main track speakers.
Developer rooms are assigned to self-organising groups to work 
together on open source projects, to discuss topics relevant to a 
broader subset of the community, etc.  Content may be scheduled in any 
format, subject to approval.  Popular formats include presentation 
tracks, hacking sessions and panel discussions.  Proposals involving 
collaboration across project or domain boundaries are strongly 
encouraged.  Proposals for main track presentations should be 
submitted using
Pentabarf:

  https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/

Developer room proposals should be emailed to <devrooms@xxxxxxxxxx> 
and be as detailed as possible.  In particular, coordinators should 
indicate their affinity with the topic being proposed and provide a 
rough idea of the content they plan to schedule.

Key dates:

15 September
   - deadline for developer room proposals
1 October
   - deadline for main track proposals
   - accepted developer rooms announced
