Mentors, please forward this to your podlings.
On their private lists I guess, as Nick sent it to private lists only.
Should have asked Nick first...the call for talks is now public at

Hi All
We've under a month to go now to Atlanta, and hopefully you've all
registered and are all looking forward to a great week?
Other than our packed schedule of talks, our growing list of meetups (see
Shane's email from Friday for more details on hosting your own), what could
be more exciting than your Next Big Thing? Well, that's where the Fast
Feather Track comes in!
The Fast Feather Track provides space for the projects that are just too new
or fast-moving to fit in to the normal CFP. So if you've got the skinny on
an Apache Incubator project, the lowdown on the Labs, a great new feature in
your project, or even just a passion for some new technology out there, then
this is your chance for twenty minutes of fame.
The Fast Feather Track is all about the technology - so whether you're a
novice or a natural at public speaking, there's room for you! Anything new
at The Apache Software Foundation belongs here, along with new external
technologies that can help us work better. Whether you're ready for showtime
and want the world to know, or you're still finding your feet, and just
fishing for a few new contributors, this is the slot for you!
What we're after now is people to tell us what they want to talk about.
We've got a room for a day, and a big empty schedule board with 20 minute
slots on it, so now all we need is some talks to fill it with... We're
aiming to fix most of the schedule now, but we'll probably keep a few slots
spare for some last minute talks. But if you've already got your ticket, and
you know what you want to talk about, please let us know now, so we can make
sure there's space for everyone.
To submit your talk, please head over to google docs and tell us about
yourself and your talk:
<https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dElobGxibG1oc05OeFNqRFZ1S0tpLVE6MQ>
We'll see you, your projects, and your great short talks in Atlanta!
Nick
(NB Speaking in the Fast Feather Track does not entitle you to the full
range of speaker perks - you'll get a shiny badge, and your bio in the
program, but you won't get your travel, room or registration comped.
Doesn't make it any less fun though, we promise!)
