40 minutes of short talks; time will be divided equally between them.
Maximum of 8 speakers, so at least 5 minutes per talk.
To register, email your name and talk title to lightning@bsdcan.org or talk to us in person at the registration desk.
Deadline Saturday 10am to sign up. First come, first served!
At 10am on Saturday, we'll let you know how much time you have.
Slides:
Must be emailed to lightning@bsdcan.org before Saturday 1:30pm. If you miss that deadline, you don't get any slides.
Must be in PDF, not powerpoint or keynote. We don't care what software you use to make your slides; just export it to PDF.
We'll only be using one laptop for the presentations, so we need to get your slides onto it ahead of time and in a format it can display.
No "live demo" allowed, sorry.
Ideas for talks:
Are you hoping to recruit people to work on something with you? This is your best chance to advertize why it's cool / useful / rewarding!
Are you working on a complicated problem, and want others to know why it's hard? Give an overview of the subject for non-experts!
Are you starting an interesting project, but not ready to give a full talk yet? Tease us with what you have so far!
