Writing About Testing is a peer conference for those interested in influencing the public discourse on software testing and software development by writing and speaking on those subjects. The discussion revolves around blogging, giving presentations at conferences and user groups, and writing for established media outlets, both for pay and for other reasons. There will very likely be representatives from established media outlets attending. Having software writers and publishers talking to each other face to face is a unique aspect of WAT. For the first WAT conference we asked only that participants be interested and have had already written about software. The second WAT will be a little different. For the second WAT we ask that applicants propose a talk (informal is fine, no slides required) of 30-45 minutes about some subject critical to their work as a tester or developer, or designer or business analyst, but which is not generally recognized as being part of such work. A list of suggestions for such talks is below. The purpose of this is to expand the practice of software beyond the current artificial boundaries of recognized software activity. -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
