The reviewing team will evaluate the entries based on the submitted abstracts and available time in the following schedule. Submission deadline: Feb 16, 2016 Confirmation of paper acceptance: Feb 23, 2016 All interested contributors are highly encouraged to send in their talks. Please help us to spread the invitation to other potential participants. Even you do not plan to be a speaker, please consider joining GNOME.Asia 2016. This is going to be a great event!
