Time to start prepping for LinuxTag, which happens June 24 through June 27th this year in Berlin. If you’d like to submit an openSUSE related talk, please do so immediately (if not sooner) on the LinuxTag call for papers. Talks should be submitted before February 28th.

LinuxTag provides some detailed guidelines for submitting talks:

If you would like to be a speaker, you can submit key information on your proposal electronically through in the Virtual Conference Center (vCC) at https://www.linuxtag.org/vcc/. You do not need to submit the full text of your presentation in your initial response to this Call for Papers. The LinuxTag website contains additional tips for optimizing the content of presentations.

Presentations and proposals can be in German or English. The abstract accompanying your proposal should be in the same language as the proposed presentation. Choose the language in which you can best express yourself. The program committee especially welcomes submissions in English, since LinuxTag is an international event.

After the deadline for submissions, the program committee will evaluate the abstracts submitted with regard to content, clarity and technical depth. LinuxTag will then notify you if your proposal is accepted, and will provide a style sheet to guide you in preparing a full written version of your presentation — generally about ten pages of text — in the Open Document Format (ODF). This is the version that will appear in the conference proceedings. You may also submit presentation slides. From this point on, presentations and author information are submitted only through the vCC. The program committee does not accept such information by e-mail.

If you have any questions about openSUSE related talks, please drop me an email.
