We would like to encourage people to submit talks for the Configuration Management devroom, which is being held at FOSDEM on Saturday, February 1.
We are looking for talks from real world case studies, brainstorming and hacking around configuration and systems management from complex virtual environments and cloud computing to desktops and laptops. There is huge interest in automation, monitoring, performance management, configuration management, and DevOps. We are looking for presentations from people who are working in the field on these topics: * Configuration and Systems Management theory & principles * Configuration and Systems Management tools - with an emphasis on real world use cases * Techniques and case studies * Audit, Compliance and Security * Various DevOps topics, including collaboration and training tips.
As most of you already know, they are asking everyone to use Pentabarf for submissions this year.
