Calls for Presentations

Everything Open call for proposals

Everything Open is, seemingly, the future form of the conference once known as linux.conf.au; see this page for a discussion of the reasoning behind the change. The inaugural event will be held March 14 to 16 in Melbourne, Australia, and the call for proposals has gone out now, with a deadline of January 15. "Our aim is to create a deeply technical conference where we bring together industry leaders and experts on a wide range of subjects."
