Several potential speakers asked us to extend the deadline of our CfP for the Matrix Devroom at FOSDEM. We are extending the deadline to Friday 8th December.
|
|
You will find below the Call for Participations amended. Please submit your talks to <https://pretalx.fosdem.org/>: we're looking forward to reading them!

|

You must be available in person in Brussels to present your talk.
|
|
|
|
## Talk Details
|
|
|
|
The talks can follow one of the two formats:
|
|
|
|
* 20 min talk + 10 min Q&A, for topics that can be covered briefly
|
|
* 50 min talk + 10 min Q&A for more complex subjects which need more focus
|
|
|
|
We strongly encourage you to prepare a demo when it makes sense, so people can actually see what your work looks like in practice.
|
|
|
|
Of course, the proposal must respect the FOSDEM terms as well:
|
|
|
|
> The conference language is English. All content must relate to Free and Open Source Software. By participating in the event you agree to the publication of your recordings, slides and other content provided under the same licence as all FOSDEM content (CC-BY).
|
|
|
|
## Submitting a Proposal
|
|
|
|
Proposals must be submitted on FOSDEM's conference management system: <https://pretalx.fosdem.org/>. Heads up that this year FOSDEM is not relying on the good old Pentabarf but on Pretalx. All submissions must go through pretalx: <https://fosdem.org/submit>
|
|
|
|
We expect to receive more requests than we have slots available. The devroom organisers will be reviewing the proposals and accepting them based on the potential positive impact the project has on Matrix, as defined in the Mission section of <https://matrix.org/foundation>.
|
|
|
|
If a project proposal has been turned down, it doesn't mean we don't believe it has good potential. Maintainers are invited to join the <https://matrix.to/#/#twim:matrix.org> Matrix room to give it some visibility.
