Call for Proposals (CFP)

Sessions at FOSS United events are usually selected from a pool of proposals. After the event is announced, the event organizers usually request the Community to submit proposals e.g. talk proposals, workshop proposals. As the scheduled date of the event approaches, the organizers choose the final sessions from the submitted proposals with help from reviewers.

NOTE: Submitting a proposal to a FOSS United event does not require you to have a Profile.
