Hi Elena
- What are you looking for when deciding on the speakers? This will differ based on the event but in general what I look for is 3 things: information not advertisement, connection to the Apache Software Foundation community, experience at speaking. - Where can I find a full list of requirements for topics submission, format, etc.? At this time, there are no calls for presenters (CFPs) open to review. Apachecon.com would be where you would find announcements for events and their respective CFPs. - What is the timeline cycle for a speaker from the moment of applying to getting approved, presenting, etc.? Depends on the CFP and the event. As an all volunteer led organization, sometimes it can take a while but we appreciate all the speakers who do apply! Right now, the pandemic is disrupting any concepts of planning so I would also warn that who the heck knows for the next year? - Who do we submit our proposal to? Usually there is a CFP for each event. The most recent one for ApacheCon @HOME was done on jamhosted (https://acna2020.jamhosted.net/). For the DC Roadshow, I used PaperCall.io (https://www.papercall.io/asf-dc20 ). Hope this helps. Is there a specific topic you are interested in presenting about? Regards, KAM -- Kevin A.
