MySQL Miniconf @ LinuxConfAU 2008: Call for Papers

I have just been notified that my proposal for a one-day MySQL Miniconf at LinuxConfAU 2008 in Melbourne has been accepted, so here’s the call-for-papers! The MySQL miniconf was packed all day last time, and we had more proposals than we could fit… so, let’s make 2008 a good one too!

There are about 6 or 7 slots of 50 minutes each. We could do 2×25 minutes for some, and possibly a slot with 5 minute lightning talks. A proposal should contain a short title and abstract of what you intend to talk about, what duration the talk would be (5, 25, 50), and a brief bio of yourself. Naturally you may submit multiple abstracts for different topics; chances are that at most one can be accepted so we see a good range of speakers and talks.

Please email your proposals to: m i n i c o n f 0 8 (at) l e n t z (dot) c o m (dot) a u
(so that is miniconf zero-eight at my private domain)
I’ll grab one or two other people to help me do the selections. Thanks

For reference, this is what the content looked like for the 2007 mysql miniconf @ LCA.
