Call for speakers: OSCON

[denise]

I decided I was going to submit to OSCON this year, and their CFP is open until November 24! If anyone else is interested in submitting, I'm happy to help you tweak your proposal.

(OSCON will not be an "official DW conference", but if I get my proposal accepted, I'd be happy to share a hotel room! And speakers get into the conference free, which is a really good deal, considering that a ticket usually runs around a grand.)

I don't expect to get a proposal in, but I really want to go since it's in Austin.

[batrachian]

a grand just for the ticket? am i missing something?

(no way on earth am i presenting. half-interested in going, but can't justify it at that expense)

[denise]

OSCON is more of a corporate conference -- you get your employer to send you, usually.

[batrachian]

Ah. So I was trying to apply an entirely different template of expectations, gotcha. :D

[misskat]

Hm. Hmmmmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I will ponder.

I'm probably sending in a proposal today, or maybe 3 proposals.
