Re: Question ad FOSDEM 2013

Sorry it was not my intention to put my foot down on the wrong place, I
forgot to write the 24 hour is no delay in my opinion, and very sensible !!

Sorry, for my wording, but I am not an english native. I was just confused.
I look forward to your  opening of a new discussion.

And to put it in open, I have no intention of perusing the right to speak
at FOSDEM, everybody else is more qualified that I am , So I will step down
if anybody takes the handle, but I think FOSDEM is very important for AOO
(in 24 hours).

Sorry for having said the right thing at the wrong time, you have my full
support.

Jan.

I'm saying that we have a talk submission deadline for ApacheCon North 
America coming in less than 24 hours. Focus can then switch to FOSDEM, 
but talking about two big conferences at the same time can be confusing 
and misleading (have a look at the apechecon-discuss archives if you 
need examples). Nobody will suffer too much if we start focusing (again) 
on FOSDEM in 24 hours and give ApacheCon NA the spotlight in the meantime.



Can you please spend a few words on what the correct procedure is ?


I'll give all details in an appropriate thread, which I'll create in 24 
hours. We are going to have some nice and long discussions there, so I 
definitely prefer to get it right from the start. And we will have 
abundant time to discuss and plan, rest assured.

  Andrea.

FOSDEM ??

I have been talking with juergen, to ensure that I helped the community and
not (as it happened before) put my foot to hard down on turf "belonging" to
someone else.

Can you please spend a few words on what the correct procedure is ? I will
not propose a main talk, unless it has the backup of the community !

I think we need all the exposure we can get, especially at FOSDEM, where
all openSource is represented !

Sure, and proposals from you and others will be most welcome. But we 
still have several weeks available, and we are trying to avoid overlap 
with the current track discussions for ApacheCon North America (talk 
submission due by today-tomorrow depending on timezone).


Next week FOSDEM will be back in the spotlight and we will discuss all 
available opportunities. Stay tuned on ooo-dev!

Hi.

I am looking at preparing a talk about the new l10n / build process
especially managing the workflow. This is done in cooperation with juergen
and andre. I will send it later as a proposal.

Call for papers to Main track is december 1, so we do have some time left.

Speaks/presentation/discussion in devroom can (as far as I know) be
arranged with short notice.

have a nice evening.
Jan I.

So there is an AOO room on Saturday at FOSDEM 2013, .

Is there any need for talks/presentations? If there is a need, what contents 
are needed and to whom
should one send a proposal by when?
