Call for Lightning Talks
Lightning Talks are your chance for 15 minutes of fame: every free or open source project can apply for giving a lightning talk at FOSDEM.
Our goal is to offer all the projects that do not fit in a specific main track or devroom the opportunity to speak. During exactly 15 minutes, one person gets to present the project or any aspect of it. All the lightning talks happen in a large room that can host up to 300 people.
The deadline has been extended to Friday, 21 December 2012.
Before applying, note that:
- The proposal should be about free or open source software or related activities and communities,
- Verify that your talk does not better fit in any of the devrooms,
- Projects that do not participate in the current or previous FOSDEM edition will be favoured over others.
Submission system:
The submission system with instructions is available at: https://frab.fosdem.org/ltalks/cfp/
