>> Submission guidelines
>> ---------------------
>>
>> The Pentabarf system will ask for many of the essential details.  Please
>> remember to re-use your account from previous years if you have one.
>>
>> In the "Submission notes", please tell us about:
>> - the purpose of your talk
>> - any other talk applications (dev-rooms, lightning talks, main track)
>> - availability constraints and special needs
>>
>> You can use HTML and links in your bio, abstract and description.

>>
>> We will be looking for relevance to the conference and dev-room themes,
>> presentations aimed at developers of free and open source software about
>> RTC-related topics.
>>
>> Please feel free to suggest a duration between 20 minutes and 55 minutes
>> but note that the final decision on talk durations will be made by the
>> dev-room administrators based on the number of received proposals.
>> As the two previous dev-rooms have been combined into one, we may decide to
>> give shorter slots than in previous years so that more speakers can
>> participate.
>>
>> Please note FOSDEM aims to record and live-stream all talks.
>> The CC-BY license is used.
>>
>> Volunteers needed
>> =================
>>
>> To make the dev-room and lounge run successfully, we are looking for
>> volunteers:
>>
>> - FOSDEM provides video recording equipment and live streaming,
>>   volunteers are needed to assist in this
>> - organizing one or more restaurant bookings (dependending upon number of
>>   participants) for the evening of Saturday, 3rd of February
>> - participation in the Real-Time lounge
>> - helping attract sponsorship funds for the dev-room to pay for the
>>   Saturday night dinner and any other expenses
>> - circulating this Call for Participation to other mailing lists
>>
>> Related events - XMPP and RTC summits
>> =====================================
>>
>> The XMPP Standards Foundation (XSF) has traditionally held a summit
>> in the days before FOSDEM.  There is discussion about a similar
>> summit taking place on the 2nd of February 2018
>> http://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Summit_22 - please join the mailing
>> list for details: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/summit
>>
>> Social events and dinners
>> =========================
>>
>> The traditional FOSDEM beer night occurs on Friday, 2nd of February.
>>
>> On Saturday night, there are usually dinners associated with
>> each of the dev-rooms.  Most restaurants in Brussels are not so
>> large so these dinners have space constraints and reservations are
>> essential.  Please subscribe to the Free-RTC mailing list for
>> further details about the Saturday night dinner options and how
>> you can register for a seat: https://lists.fsfe.org/mailman/listinfo/free-rtc
>>
>> Spread the word and discuss
>> ===========================
>>
>> If you know of any mailing lists where this CfP would be relevant, please
>> forward this email. If this dev-room excites you, please blog or microblog
>> about it, especially if you are submitting a talk.
