 Code4lib 2011 is a loosely-structured conference for library
 technologists to commune, gather/create/share ideas and software, be

 Monday February 7th (Preconference Day) - Thursday February 10th, 2011
 in Bloomington, IN. More information can be found at
 http://code4lib.org/conference/2011/

 There are separate submission pages for 20-minute prepared talks,
 lightning talks, breakout sessions, and Preconference events.

 1. Prepared Talks

 Head over to the call for proposals page at
 http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/2011talks_Submissions and submit
 your idea for a prepared talk for this year's conference!  Proposals
 should be no longer than 500 words, and preferably many less.

 Prepared talks are 20 minutes (including setup and questions), and
 focus on one or more of the following areas:
  * tools (some cool new software, software library or integration platform)
  * specs (how to get the most out of some protocols, or proposals for new 
 ones)
  * challenges (one or more big problems we should collectively address)

 The community will vote on proposals using the criteria of:
  * usefulness
  * newness
  * geekiness
  * diversity of topics


 Proposals can be submitted through November 13th. Voting will commence
 soon thereafter and be open through December 1st.  Successful
 candidates will be notified by December 3rd. The submitter (and if
 necessary a second presenter) will be guaranteed an opportunity to
 register for the conference through December 21st.

 We cannot accept every prepared talk proposal, but multiple lightning
 talk and breakout sessions will provide everyone who wishes to present
 with an opportunity to do so.

 2. Lightning talks:

 3. Breakout sessions:

 have space for up to 3 full-day pre-conferences and 3-6 half-day

 We look forward to your participation!

I think Nov. 19th as a deadline for preconference proposals is fine,
that should give the locals time to set up rooms ahead of December 1,
when registration is set to open.

I've annotated the lightning talk page (since those are done at the
conference), and the breakout talk page (since those are done 
shortly before

or at the conference).
For the preconferences, is there a proposal deadline? (Friday

19th?)
