Yes, the speaker lineup is still forming. There's also a link there to the Call for Proposals: https://github.submittable.com/submit If there happen to be any Git experts on the list who would like to give a talk. :) Plans for the Contributor Summit are still forming, but it will likely be the day after the main conference, March 5th. > > It seems that the conference will only last one day instead of 2, as > > it looks like workshops are going to happen in the morning instead of > > on their own day. > > That would make the attendance from Europe quite low I believe: it is > quite hard to justify a 12h flight for only a one-day, of which > half-day is for workshops :-( Yes, it is unfortunate. On the flip side, it will hopefully give an opportunity for people from North America to make it, who might have had a hard time justifying a flight to Europe in past years. > Do you know if there is any reason for having such a short conference? We're trying to mix things up and make it a little more interactive. There will probably be some discussion sessions in the morning, concurrent with the workshops, to try to get users talking to each other and to Git experts (with the idea that you could switch between the two to make your own agenda). Plans there are still shaping up. -Peff
