Thanks for the discussion, and I can imagine that there might be a risk involved if somebody decides to make a submission.

But that's the way reviewed contributions are going to be published.

7 months before the conference is not early, if we are lucke, we can handle the review, selection, publishing process in time.

    We invite academics and researchers to submit full papers in English,
    of maximum 6,000 words, before the deadline of 1 February 2013.
    Templates for submissions in a variety of formats can be found here,
    and detailed requirements, regarding layout, formatting and the
    submission process, can be found on the FOSS4G 2103 Academic Track
    submission pages at http://2013.foss4g.org/ojs/
    """


This is clear...

but then my question is:
- Why do I have to submit a paper without knowing if I'm going to be select for presentation?
- And why 7 months before of the conference?

It looks to me quite strange...
