      * FOSS Stack development
      * Cool FOSS Mobile Projects
      * Anything else relating to the Mobile FOSS space

If you're not sure whether your presentation fits, then please feel free
to drop a line and we can point you in the right direction.

Presentation Format:

We're looking for presentations that are 20 minutes long + 5 minutes for

Call for Papers Opens: NOW!

Things you need to know:

      * To present at the miniconf you need to be attending the main
        conference. While there are special "miniconf only" tickets
        available, they are strictly limited.
      * Miniconf presenters are not able to access travel and
        accommodation assistance.
      * Miniconf presenters are not able to access the same benefits as
        main conference presenters. Essentially Miniconf presenters are
        treated as normal delegates (depending on your delegate type).

Terms and Conditions:

      * All presenters give permission for their presentations to be
        recorded (both video and audio) and released under a Creative
        Commons Share Alike license.
      * All presenters grant that they have permission to present the
        information contained within their presentations.
      * All presenters agree to ensure their presentations are
        professional and not likely to cause offence. Have fun, but
        don't do anything you wouldn't want your mother seeing.
