<p dir="ltr">This year, our theme is "The Future of Open Source". We're still interested in talks about new and exciting developments in every aspect of Free and Open Source Software, but we’ll also be focusing particularly on how the world of Open Source will look in the future.</p>
<p dir="ltr">If you’re working with Free and Open Source Software, Open Hardware, if you’re exploring openness in a field outside of technology, or if you’re doing something that you think will be interesting to people interested in Open Source, we want to hear from you!</p>
<p dir="ltr">You can read more about what we're looking for in our Call for Proposals, which can be found at <a href="https://linux.conf.au/proposals">https://linux.conf.au/proposals</a> -- Our CFP also contains details of what support we're able to provide for our speakers, including limited travel and accommodation support.</p>
