Call for Proposals
Our call for proposals is open until December 18. We're interested in hearing about any topic around the CentOS ecosystem, including from projects built on or with CentOS. Talks may be either 25 or 50 minutes long. We generally prefer shorter talks, but allow longer talks for more technical deep dives.
We are also hosting meetups on the morning of Thursday, February 1. Meetups are designed for SIGs, teams, and interest groups to have either working sessions or discussions. Meetups may be either 2 hours (quarter day) or 4 hours (half day). All meetups are public to all attendees.
