GNOME.Asia Summit 2018 invites proposals for presentations at the conference.
GNOME.Asia Summit is the featured annual GNOME conference in Asia. It focuses primarily on the GNOME desktop, but also covers applications and the platform development tools. The summit brings together the GNOME community in Asia to provide a forum for users, developers, foundation leaders, governments and businesses to discuss the present technology and future developments.
The conference will be co-hosted with COSCUP 2018 which will be held in Taipei, Taiwan from 2018-08-11 until 2018-08-12. We welcome proposals by newcomers and experienced speakers alike.

A standard session will be scheduled for 45 mins (35 mins talk + 10 mins Q&A). The session could be a technical talk, panel discussion, or BOF. If you need more time or additional resources, feel free to get in touch with the organizing team.
For those who would like to participate but are not sure if they’d like to do a full talk, we have shorter lightning talks. These are a 10 minutes presentation to demonstrate your work or promote an interesting topic. These talks will be grouped together in a single session.
Please provide a short abstract of your proposal (under 150 words). Include your name, biographical information, a photo suitable for the web, a title, and a description of your presentation. The reviewing team will evaluate the entries based on the submitted abstracts and available time by following the schedule.
Submission deadline: 2018-05-20
Confirmation of paper acceptance: 2018-06-01 until 2018-06-05
All interested contributors are highly encouraged to send in talks.
