Hi Team: I'm starting to work on the abstract for this (will circulate it soon).
Apache Con has two options for talk submission: Keynote and Standard. I'm thinking of submitting to the Keynote category. Any comments? I figured go-big-or-go-home. Not sure if ApacheCon is like some of the other industry-style conferences in which keynotes are favored from sponsors. Also, what do folks think of working on a release sometime early summer? We can try to see if Marc can help if he has settled down from the recent excitement (https://techcrunch.com/2018/01/25/ford-acquires-autonomic-and-transloc-as-it-evolves-its-mobility-business/).

You need to convince members of the audience to use Quickstep in their application or data engine, and then to start contributing. The fact that the Quickstep is high-performance is necessary but not sufficient. You also need to demonstrate that it is easy to use Quickstep in their project. From your talk by all means reference your research and experiments to back up your assertions about speed etc. Julian > On Feb 8, 2018, at 5:00 PM, J. M.
