Android Open Starts Call for Proposals
O'Reilly Conference Seeks Speakers

Sebastopol, CA, December 20, 2011--Android Open, happening April 5-6, 2012 in San Francisco, zeroes
in on the technical side of Android. While our fall event is for the entire Android ecosystem
(development, business, and marketing), this spring event is a more focused technical conference
for developers. The Android world moves too quickly to wait a whole year between conferences.

Chairs Brady Forrest and Marko Gargenta have opened the call for proposals on topics including:

- Mastering app development
- Android frameworks
- Android Internals
- Making Android beautiful
- Tablets, TVs, and other large screen devices
- Alternative hardware
- Alternative VM languages
- Industry case studies
- Gaming
- Enterprise solutions
- Development tools
- Tips and tricks
- Performance
- Security
- QA and testing
- Moving to ICS

Proposals are due January 23, 2012:

Conference, in the same location.
