Process

We will be holding a series of lightning talks at the MeeGo Conference 2010 on Wednesday, November 17 (exact time TBD). Anyone can submit a proposal for a lightning talk - all submissions are due on November 3 at 23:59 Pacific Time.

Each lightning talk is exactly 5 minutes (no exceptions). We will limit the time available for lightning talks to 1-2 hours (10-20 talks). If we get more than this, then the selection committee will need to decide whether we allocate some extra time or go through an approval process for the talks.

Schedule

  • October 18: Begin asking people to submit their lightning talk proposal.
  • November 3: Lightning talk submissions due.
  • November 4: Content selection committee to determine how much time to allocate and notify people that have / have not been approved.
  • November 10: All presentations due (Note: we need this lead time because we'll load all of the presentations on one laptop to avoid wasting time switching between computers for 5 minute talks.)

Submission Process

  • Name and link to meego profile.
  • Talk title.
