About linux.conf.au

+

+ linux.conf.au is a conference where people gather to learn about the entire world of Free and Open Source Software, directly from the people who contribute. + Many of these contributors give scheduled presentations, but much interaction occurs in-between and after formal sessions between all attendees. Our aim is to + create a deeply technical conference where we bring together industry leaders and experts on a wide range of subjects. +

+ +

+ linux.conf.au welcomes submissions from first-time and seasoned speakers, from all free and open technology communities, and all walks of life. We respect and encourage diversity at our conference. +

+ +

Conference Theme

+

+ Our theme for linux.conf.au 2019 is "The Linux of Things". Building on the role that Linux plays in our everyday lives, we will address IoT-related opportunities and concerns + from the purely technical through environmental, health, privacy, security and more. Please let this inspire you, but not restrict you - we will still have many talks about other + interesting things in our community. +

+ +

Deciding what to speak about at linux.conf.au can be a tough challenge, particularly for new speakers.

+ +

Last year we had a talk about talking, which is well worth watching! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QIQNcGnXes

Accessibility

+ linux.conf.au aims to be accommodating to everyone who wants to attend or present at the conference. We recognise that some people face accessibility challenges. If you have special accessibility requirements, you can provide that information when submitting your proposal so that we can plan to properly accommodate you. +

+ +

+ We recognise that childcare and meeting dietary requirements also fall under the general principle of making it possible for everyone to participate, and will be announcing our offering for these in the near future; if you have concerns or needs in these areas, or in any area that would impact your ability to participate, please let us when submitting your proposal. +

+ + + +

Code of Conduct

+ +

Recording

+

To increase the number of people that can view your presentation, linux.conf.au will record your talk and make it publicly available after the event. + We plan to release recordings of every talk at the conference under a Creative Commons Share-Alike Licence. When submitting your proposal you may note that you do not + wish to have your talk released, although we prefer and encourage all presentations to be recorded. +

+

Licensing

+

If the subject of your presentation is software, you must ensure the software has an Open Source Initiative-approved licence at the time of the close of our CFP.
