LECTURE REQUIREMENTS

Lectures should not exceed 45 minutes plus up to 15 minutes for
questions and answers. Longer time slots are possible if we feel the
topic demands it (please tell us if necessary). This year, due to
popular demand, we also introduce 20 minute talks. Please state the
length of your presentation clearly on your submission.

PUBLICATION

Audio and video recordings of the lectures will be published online in
various formats. All material will be available under the Creative
Commons “Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Germany” license
(http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/de/).
We encourage contributors to publish their work under a more liberal
license; if you wish to do so, please state this with your submission.

LANGUAGE OF THE PRESENTATION

While the 28C3 is an international conference that aims to present
lots of content in English, we would rather have a good presentation
in German than a bad one in so-called Denglisch. So please be honest
when judging your language skills and choose your lecture language
accordingly.
Sales and marketing droids are known to vanish without any trace at
the congress, please refrain from submitting company propaganda.

TRAVEL EXPENSES

The Chaos Communication Congress is a non-profit oriented event and
speakers are not paid. However, financial help on travel expenses and
accommodation is possible. It needs to be agreed upon after acceptance
of the submission, though. Don't be shy and state your requirements in
the application when submitting your lecture and we'll work something
out.

DATES AND DEADLINES

The deadline for submission is October 11th, 2011 Midnight (23:59)
UTC. Notification of acceptance will be sent by e-mail on November
20th, 2011 the latest. However, you may very well get your
notification earlier than that if needed.
- October 11th, 2011 (Midnight UTC) Submission due
- November 20th, 2011 (Midnight UTC) Final notification of acceptance
(or earlier)

Too many mailing list subscriptions. :) But in this case, Frantisek was the reminder.

They have a small amount of money for speakers' travel.
