Hi Folks,
Want to meet awesome women in technology? Submit your talk proposal now.
The Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing Conference will be held
October 19-21, 2016 in Houston, TX (http://gracehopper.org/2016/
). Founded in 1996, the Grace Hopper
Celebration of Women in Computing is an annual conference that provides
attendees with technical sessions covering a wide range of subjects as well
as a rich offering of professional development sessions for attendees at
all career levels.

Stormy Peters and I are co-chairing the track and the deadline is March 30,
2016.

We would like to invite presentations, lightening talks, panels, workshops,
and birds of a feather to the Open Source Track.  Submissions that discuss
Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) development are welcomed and we are
looking for submissions that enable more interactions between presenters
and the audience. We’d like to see successful stories that encourage and
teach participants how to use and deploy the best about FOSS. Possible
topics include:

   -

   FOSS intellectual property, copyrights and licensing
   -

   Non-Governmental Organizations and FOSS
   -

   Incorporating FOSS within organization’s development lifecycle
   -

   Lessons from FOSS for conventional development
   -

   Successful stories about encouraging diversity in FOSS projects
   -

   FOSS and social & humanitarian issues
   -

   FOSS technologies, in particular how to use them or how to get started.
   -

   Adoption/ use / acceptance of FOSS
   -

   Dissemination / redistribution / crowdsourcing of FOSS systems
   -

   Expanding scientific research and technology development methods through
   openness
   -

   Adopting innovation in FOSS projects
   -

   Role of FOSS in ICT and sustainable development
   -

   Learning, knowledge sharing, collaboration, control or conflict in FOSS
   projects
   -

   FOSS usability, scalability, maintainability and other quality issues
   -

   Talk or workshop on specific FOSS technologies, such as version control
