[[!meta title="Submit"]]
[[!meta copyright="Copyright © 2019, 2020 Amin Bandali"]]
When you're ready to submit your talk proposal, send your submission
via email to <emacsconf-submit@gnu.org> including at minimum these
essential information:
- your (preferred) name,
- the title of your talk,
- a short handle ("slug") for your talk (for use in file names and
URLs),
- an abstract of your talk (500 words or less), and
- confirmation of your agreement with releasing the recording of your
talk from the livestream on the day(s) of the conference, along with
any associated material publicly, under the Creative Commons
Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0) free culture
license. Associated material may include slides, notes,
transcripts, and prerecording of your talk (if you had sent me one).
All kinds of people use Emacs for all kinds of things. We would love
it if EmacsConf 2020 could highlight interesting perspectives and
reflect the diversity of our community. If you know someone who might
have a good idea for a talk, please reach out to them and encourage
them to submit a proposal. Many people (especially from
underrepresented groups such as women, people of colour, and
non-developers) might not consider themselves expert enough to share
their thoughts. If you let them know that you value their knowledge
and maybe even suggest something that you think others would like to
hear more about, they may realize that they have something worth
sharing and that we would love to hear from them.
This year, we are experimenting with an anonymized submission process.
Identifying information will be removed from submissions by a
conference organizer who will not participate in talk selection. The
anonymized submissions will then be reviewed by a selection committee.
We hope this will help reduce bias and encourage contribution. We
look forward to hearing from you (and the people you want to nudge to
speak)!
