CALL FOR PAPERS
We are inviting proposals for talks about LibreOffice Technology,
including ODF standard document format, on topics such as code,
localization, QA, UX, documentation, tools, extensions, migrations and
general advocacy. Please keep in mind that product pitches are not
allowed at FOSDEM.
The length of talks is limited to a maximum of 25 minutes, as we would
like to have some minutes for questions after each presentation, and to
fit as many presenters as possible in the schedule. Exceptions must be
explicitly requested and justified. You may be assigned LESS time than
you have requested.
IMPORTANT INFORMATIONS
- Presentations have to be pre-recorded and tested for streaming before
the event.
- Once your talk is pre-recorded, and approved by a reviewer in term of
quality for streaming, it will have to be uploaded by January 23, to be
prepared and ready for broadcast (the deadline cannot be moved further).
- During the stream of talks, speakers must be available online for the
Q/A session.
TALK SUBMISSIONS
All talk submissions have to be made in the Pentabarf event planning
tool: https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM22.
While filing the proposal, please provide the title of your talk, a
short abstract (one or two paragraphs), some information about yourself
(name, bio and photo, but please do remember that your profile might be
already stored in Pentabarf).
To submit your talk, click on “Create Event” and select the “LibreOffice
Technology” DevRoom as the “Track”. Otherwise, your talk will not be
even considered for any devroom at all.
If you already have a Pentabarf account from a previous year, even if
your talk was not accepted, please reuse it. Create an account if, and
only if, you don’t have one from a previous year. If you have any issues
with Pentabarf, please get in touch with the DevRoom manager.
