Great to hear! I asked this question on IRC the other day, but now that we have a talks team, I can ask you all directly for your thoughts. I'm expecting to get conference registration opened today, and ideally the "call for papers" would follow shortly thereafter. Do you want to provide any guidance around tracks as part of the CfP, or do you want the tracks to be organized only after you see what papers people submit? (Of course, even if we suggested some tracks in the CfP, there would be room for adding other tracks later, or accepting papers that don't fit the pre-defined tracks.) And more broadly, does the talks team want to own sending the CfP itself? I'm happy to handle the summit development side of things and leave the CfP to someone else. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
