Speaker Proposals are now closed.

-The Flourish organizers are now accepting speaker proposals for Flourish 2011.-

There are principally two types of talks: presentations and workshops.

Presentations are typically an hour long (incl. Q&A) and discuss open-source-related matters of technical, community, or industry import.

Past presentations have been fairly high-level and tackled a diverse array of topics--from kernel hacking and  programming languages to community/project management and women in open source. Note that, if we get a lot of proposals for a particular topic, we may opt to build a panel discussion.

Workshops are usually three hours long and explore a particular topic in an intensive, hands-on environment. In the past, Flourish has offered workshops in Android, Websphere, Erlang, Processing, Plone and Drupal. The organizers
provide all the necessary connectivity.
