# Call for Papers FrOSCon 2013 #
The Free and Open Source software conference (FrOSCon), a summer
conference for users and developers of FOSS, will again be held on the
24th and 25th of August at the University of Applied Sciences
Bonn-Rhein-Sieg in Sankt Augustin near Bonn, Germany. It is organized by
the department of computer science in collaboration with the Linux/Unix
User Group Sankt Augustin, the student body and the FrOSCon e.V.
As its key feature, volunteer speakers will hold a comprehensive range
of talks and workshops. Additionally the event offers space and
facilities to Free Software developers and projects to organize their
own meetings or sub conferences. It is topped off with a fair of booths
from FLOSS projects and companies.
# Topics #
We are looking for contributions on current trends and development in all
areas of Free and Open Source Software, e.g.:
- - Operating systems
- - Software development
- - Administration
- - IT security
- - Legal aspects
- - Desktop
- - Education
Focus areas in 2013 are:
Seemless Computing - Methods and implementations of unifying your
computing needs across all your devices
Flowers for a Walled Garden - How should Free Software deal with closed
ecosystems?
Electrical Turks - Let the computer do your chores
Until May 23rd, 2013 developers and experts interested in giving a
lecture or workshop at the conference can submit their proposals. The
selection is done by a program committee early June.
# Submitting Contributions #
Registration and submission of contributions is accomplished via the
web-based frontend at
http://cfp.froscon.org/. To participate in the Call
for Papers, you will have to submit a short abstract as well as a
detailed description. To participate in the conference you will also
need to submit slides for your talk beforehand.
# Language #
Contributions can be submitted in German as well as English. The choice
of language should depend solely on which language is more suitable for
presenting the chosen topic. Language of the submitted texts and of the
talk should be the same.
# Length of the contributions #
The abstract should summarize the planned content of the talk in a
precise and succinct way. We do not place a limit on its length.
The talks should take no more than 45 minutes, in order to allow some
time for questions and for preparing the stage for the following speaker.
We can accept longer contributions in special cases; we ask for a
justification for the longer extent in this case.
# Format #
Abstract and description have to be submitted as plain text via the web
frontend. We ask for submission of the slides in PDF; other open
document format such as OpenOffice should only be submitted after prior
consultation.
# Licenses #
We will publish abstract, description and slides on a website and
include the abstract in the conference program. We demand that you place
your contributions under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial
2.0 Germany (
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.0/de/) license
(or a more lenient license.)
Unless another license is noted, we will assume that your contribution
is under this license. If you want to place your works under a less
restrictive license, please note so with your submission.
# Selection of Contributions #
Contributions are selected based on their content by a program committee.
Please understand that we cannot accept all contributions and are limited
by the number and quality of the submissions. We will favor submissions
which fall under one of the aforementioned topics.
# Other Remuneration #
FrOSCon is organized by volunteers and is mostly funded by sponsors. We
ask you to understand that we will not be able to reimburse you for your
expenses.
# Accomodation #
There will be a contingent of rooms reserved for our speakers in a
nearby hotel. You will receive details on that after your submission has
been accepted.

kindly invite all speakers to attend.
