FOSDEM 2019 - PHP and Friends devroom CFP ----------------------------------------- This is the call for participation in the FOSDEM 2019 PHP and Friends devroom, to be held on February 2, 2019 in Brussels, Belgium. We are looking for contributions in the form of presentations or tutorials. FOSDEM PHP and Friends is not limited to just PHP-related talks. There have been sessions covering a wide range of topics supporting PHP developers and DevOps in the past as well, and we encourage you to think outside the box to come up with your own unique topics. Possible topics include: * Virtualization and environments * Javascript * Alternate PHP run-times * PHP internals * Development principles * Security * Testing (unit, functional, etc.) * Building APIs (GraphQL, REST, SOAP, whatever) * Continuous Integration * Framework-related topics (Symfony, Laravel, Drupal, ...) * Professional development * PHP7 Submitting talks ---------------- Please submit your proposals at https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM19 before November 25, 2018. If you already have a Pentabarf account (for example as a result of having submitted a proposal in the past), make sure you use it to log in and submit your proposal. Do not create a new account if you already have one. Make sure to include the following in your proposal: * title and subtitle of your talk * a short abstract (one or two paragraphs) detailing what the talk will discuss, and why attendees should attend it. * a longer description if you have more details to share. * select the "PHP & Friends devroom" track! * the duration of your talk (25 or 50 min, including time for Q&A) * links to related material/websites/blogs (optional) If you have any issues or questions, contact php [dash] devroom [at] lists.fosdem.org Recordings ---------- The FOSDEM organisers hope to be able to live-stream and record all the talks. The recordings will be published under the same licence as all FOSDEM content (CC-BY). Only presentations will be recorded, not informal discussions and whatever happens during breaks between presentations.
