So I won't be _completely_ invisible. If I was submitting, given the success of my "ground up tutorial" approach this year I'd also straight up ask in the general forums if there's any topics I should cover. So if I don't do a talk, at least someone else will have a solid idea for one ;-)

You'd obviously have more information about the proposals than I do, but there must not have been many given how few presentations came from outside the inner circle this year. Even if a proposal gets turned down, one can always submit it at another programmers' conference, or even a meetup. They're always looking for material. (I gave a talk at a meetup just last month.) Thanks Mr. Bright. And thanks to all of you for encouraging me.

The core contributors and others kind of chipped in to save the day. We want tons of proposals. Ali Also, it's low cost to submit, so there's no reason not to do so.

If you submit a talk proposal and it's accepted, then you are eligible after the conference to have your travel and accommodation expenses reimbursed. As long as they're reasonable (e.g. no first-class plane tickets or 5-star hotels, etc.). Alright, thank you very much for the information.

And the announcements and finalization don’t really have a specific date but usually around Jan/feb ish (just did a quick search for the different years). Cheers Ali

Hi guys. I'm eager to attend the next DConf, which is why I'm already planning everything about how I will travel from Brazil to the UK(or maybe Germany). When will you announce the place and date of the next DConf?
