Hi Gaurav, yes, I hope gaurav the theme (and Gaurav the person) gets a
lot *more* attention too... :)
You are most welcome to submit a proposal for any Apache project, and
you don't need anybody's permission to do so. I've never given a
presentation at ApacheCon so I wouldn't know much more than what the
website would tell you. I'd be cautious though, I'm not certain they
will cover your formidable transportation and lodging costs if they
accepted your presentation (or may take that into account when judging
to accept your proposal, reducing the chances of its acceptance).
'Course, at this early stage in your career, given the amount of time
and effort it would take to give a presentation in Europe, it might be
better for you to spend that time on gaining more technical know-how
anyway (say, by submitting more Roller patches :), as substance is
always better than show.
Regards,
Glen

Hello Dave and Glen,
I am really excited and interested in submitting a paper on Apache
Roller.
I have worked on roller and have contributed to roller some months
back. I also have contributed the responsive theme for roller which is
really gaining some attention.
Glen, might be knowing me and remembering me. I can provide a hands-on
tutorial or an introduction for beginners about Roller.
Can anyone please guide me how I can go for this ? Is there anything
specific anyone has idea for which I can prepare the paper. This is my
first time and really looking forward for this conference.
Thanks
Gaurav

Dear Roller fans,
As you may be aware, ApacheCon will be held this year in Budapest, on
November 17-23. (See http://apachecon.eu for more info.)
The Call For Papers for that conference is still open, but will be
closing soon. Now is your chance to tell the world about how you
use Roller. This could be any level of talk - a deep technical talk,
a hands-on tutorial, an introduction for beginners, or a case study
about the awesome stuff you're doing with Roller.
Please consider submitting a proposal, at

Thanks!
