GStreamer Conference 2017 - Call for Papers - Deadline extended!

[Tim-Philipp Müller]

Hi,

Just a quick note to let everyone know that the talk submission
deadline for the GStreamer Conference 2017 has been *extended* to the
end of August.

Please submit your talk proposals/ideas now! All it takes is a title
and a short abstract.

The conference will take place on 21-22 October 2017 in Prague (Czech
Republic).

The GStreamer Conference is a conference for developers, community
members, decision-makers, industry partners, and anyone else interested
in the GStreamer multimedia framework and open source multimedia.

The call for papers is now open and talk proposals can be submitted.

Details can be found on the conference website at

    https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/conference/


=== Submission format ===

The initial submission needs to be only a couple of paragraphs
describing the talk you want to give and the desired length of your
talk (please allow for at least 5 minutes of questions at the end as
well).

Talks can be on almost anything multimedia related, ranging from talks
about applications to challenges in the lower levels in the stack or
hardware.

Please send all proposals to gstreamer-conference at lists.freedesktop.org

You should receive a confirmation of your submission within days, and
notification whether your talk has been accepted or not before the end
of August.

There preliminary deadline for proposals is 13 August 2017, but if
you're thinking about giving a talk please don't wait but send your
ideas in as soon as possible.


=== Showcase or Lightning Talks ===

This year there will again be an opportunity for short showcase or
lightning talks.

If you don't think you have enough material for a full-length talk, but
perhaps just want to showcase something you're working on, or present a
problem or challenge you are facing or have solved and that you think
might be interesting for others to hear about, why not submit a ca. 5
minute mini-talk for our lightning talk/showcase event?

Please send a short e-mail to the gstreamer-conference list to reserve
your slot.

There is no deadline for lightning talks submissions, but lightning
talk slots will be given out on a first-come-first-serve basis.

 Cheers
  -Tim
