Reminder: linux.conf.au call-for-proposals ending soon
I was going to post a reminder, then thought I'd missed the submissions deadline, but turns out it was extended!
Linux Conf AU will be held in Auckland on 12 Jan - 16 Jan, 2015. The Call for Proposals (and miniconfs) now ends 21 Jul. It's a great conference -- covering all things open source, not just Linux -- and they're very generous with travel assistance for speakers and are always looking for new people to speak so it's not just The Usual Suspects. Please consider submitting!
I will almost certainly be going this year even if my talks (I've submitted two) aren't accepted, so if you're on the fence about submitting because you're feeling uncertain about your public speaking background, submit anyway: if your talk gets accepted, I will cheerfully help you refine your talk before departure and help you rehearse once we get there.
