[CFP] FOSDEM 2016, RTC devroom, speakers, volunteers neeeded

2015-10-31 Thread Daniel Pocock
Standards Foundation (XSF) has traditionally held a summit
in the days before FOSDEM.  There is discussion about a similar
summit taking place on 28 and 29 January 2016
http://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Summit_19 - please join the mailing
list for details: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/summit

We are also considering a more general RTC or telephony summit,
potentially on 29 January.  Please join the Free-RTC mailing list
and send an email if you would be interested in participating,
sponsoring or hosting such an event.

Social events and dinners

The traditional FOSDEM beer night occurs on Friday, 29 January

On Saturday night, there are usually dinners associated with
each of the dev-rooms.  Most restaurants in Brussels are not so
large so these dinners have space constraints.  Please subscribe
to the Free-RTC mailing list for further details about the
Saturday night dinner options and how you can register for a seat:

[CFP] reminder! FOSDEM RTC dev-room talks: deadline Friday

2015-11-25 Thread Daniel Pocock

Reminder: speaker's deadline this Friday, 27 November at 23:59 UTC

We have already received several really exciting talk proposals
but there is still time for people to propose talks or encourage
friends or colleagues to speak.

Many other dev-rooms also have a deadline in the next few days and if
your topic is applicable to more than one dev-room, you are welcome
to make more than one submission.  Please contact us or put a note in
the memo field at the top of the talk proposal if you do that.

All projects are encouraged to consider making a lightning talk too,
it is an excellent opportunity to get exposure for your project:
even though you only have 15 minutes, it can be a much larger and more
diverse audience than in some dev-rooms.

For full details, please see the call for papers:

We invite all potential speakers and participants to discuss the selection 
process and other aspects of FOSDEM on the Free-RTC mailing list:
