Fedora community:

The submission deadline for full paper proposals for Open Repositories 2012 
(both the Fedora User Group and general conference) has been extended to March 
5. More details below...

I'm also happy to announce that we will have a track for "Pecha Kucha" style 
presentations (short presentations similar to the 24x7 talks at OR2011) for the 
Fedora User Group, and the deadline for those submissions will be March 31.

Good news for those working hard on proposals for this year's Open Repositories 
Conference in Edinburgh - we're extending the submission deadline for papers & 
workshops by 2 weeks until March 5th. Whether your proposal is for the general 
conference track, or more suited to the user group tracks for EPrints, DSpace 
and Fedora, you've got 14 more days to refine your ideas for papers. The 
remaining dates in the process are not expected to shift, so you'll still have 
plenty of time to make arrangements to attend.

5th Mar 2012 Deadline for papers, workshops & user group sessions 31st Mar 2012 
Deadline for posters, Pecha Kucha and demos 6th Apr 2012 Workshop/paper 
submitters notified 11th May 2012 Poster/demo/Pecha Kucha submitters notified 
9th Jul 2012 Conference pre-workshops begin

Workshop proposals can be made now by email to 
or2...@ed.ac.uk<mailto:or2...@ed.ac.uk>; we've already received a number of 
exciting ideas so we would encourage you not to wait until the deadline if you 
haven't already been in touch.

Due to a glitch with the submission system we can't yet take paper submissions 
but we expect this to be resolved next week, and we'll make an announcement at 
that time. Full details will be provided on the OR2012 web site at 
http://or2012.ed.ac.uk/

This year's event will also have more space for informal, unconference-style 
contributions as well as the Developer Challenge. If a full paper isn't for 
you, consider contributing in another way. We'll be releasing more details 
nearer the event. This will include Pecha Kuchas and poster sessions with a 
deadline of the 31st of March.
