Hello everyone,

The calls for talk proposals, tutorials, and lightning talks are currently up.

Our call for talk and tutorial proposals ends on May 15th.

We need your proposals!

We also need you to actively encourage people to submit talks. We all know people who would do a great job speaking who may not have considering submitting a talk because no one ever asked them to speak.

If you know of someone who would be great but needs extra encouragement, please get them in touch with one of our speaker mentors for some extra coaching.

If you are concerned that a 20 or 40-minute talk is too long, consider giving a 5-minute lightning talk. We are accepting proposals for the first day's talks in advance this year. We will take submissions for subsequent days while at the conference.

If you are a member or organizer of a local user's group or meetup, please consider helping organize a proposal sprint to help others with their proposals.

Call for talk reviewers

We could also use your help reviewing talks and tutorials. Get in touch!
