Right; but at the same time, there are other options besides talks
Sure. This only holds for talks in devrooms, as I just confirmed with
the organizers (but again, the call I mentioned is about talks for the
Open Document Editors devroom, deadline today).
and, besides, there are groups on licensing and metrics
Talks about licensing can be submitted to the dedicated devroom (again,
confirmed with organizers).
… and just saw that Simon echoed my point re Bitergia.
It a separate event the day before FOSDEM. It's not part of FOSDEM, it
has nothing to do with talks in the Open Documents Editors devroom.
Good idea, btw, to look at what is already accepted rather
than accept defeat before any venture, no?
Whatever way you want to see it, I can only confirm that talks in the
Open Documents Editors devroom have to be technical and follow the
guidelines in
https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/call_for_talks_open_document ; I find
non-technical talks equally interesting (I gave two non-technical talks
myself during ApacheCon), but they are not for this devroom. Obviously,
I'm very open to both technical and non-technical discussions at any
moment during FOSDEM; these guidelines must be respected for the devroom
talks since these are the house rules, but for the rest we'll be free to
discuss everything!
Regards,
Andrea.
