Subject: [FOSDEM] FOSDEM 2015 Desktops DevRoom Call for Talks Date: Sunday 26 October 2014, 23.58:57 From: Pau Garcia i Quiles <pgquiles@elpauer.org> To: FOSDEM visitors <fosdem@lists.fosdem.org>, devroom-managers@lists.fosdem.org <devroom-managers@lists.fosdem.org>, desktops-devroom@lists.fosdem.org

Hello,

--8<---

FOSDEM <http://www.fosdem.org> is one of the largest gatherings of Free Software contributors in the world and happens each February in Brussels (Belgium). One of the tracks will be the Desktops DevRoom (formerly known as “CrossDesktop DevRoom”), which will host Desktop-related talks.

We are now inviting proposals for talks about Free/Libre/Open-source Software on the topics of Desktop development, Desktop applications and interoperability amongst Desktop Environments. This is a unique opportunity to show novel ideas and developments to a wide technical audience.

Topics accepted include, but are not limited to: Enlightenment, Gnome, KDE, Unity, XFCE, LXQt, Windows, Mac OS X, software development for the desktop, general desktop matters, applications that enhance desktops and web (when related to desktop).

Talks can be very specific, such as the advantages/disadvantages of development with Qt on Wayland over X11/Mir; or as general as predictions for the fusion of Desktop and web in 5 years time. Topics that are of interest to the users and developers of all desktop environments are especially welcome. The FOSDEM 2014 schedule <https://archive.fosdem.org/2014/schedule/track/desktops/> might give you some inspiration.

Please include the following information when submitting a proposal:

- Your name - The title of your talk (please be descriptive, as titles will be listed with around 250 from other projects) - Short abstract of one or two paragraphs - Short bio (with photo) - Requested time: from 15 to 45 minutes. Normal duration is 30 minutes. Longer duration requests must be properly justified. You may be assigned LESS time than you request.

The deadline for submissions is December 7th 2014. FOSDEM will be held on the weekend of January 31st-February 1st 2015 and the Desktops DevRoom will take place on Sunday, February 1st 2015. Please use the following website to submit your proposals: https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM15 (you do not need to create a new Pentabarf account if you already have one from past years).

You can also join the devroom’s mailing list, which is the official communication channel for the DevRoom: desktops-devroom@lists.fosdem.org <https://lists.fosdem.org/private/desktops-devroom/> (subscription page <https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/desktops-devroom> for the mailing list)
