The FOSDEM Call for Proposals for the Infra Management devroom on February 2nd, 2019 is open! The Infra Management devroom is what was previously called the config Management devroom. This year we wanted to expand the scope from mere config management to all infrastructure management, hence the rename. FOSDEM Submissions are due on November 20th, 2018. If you submitted a talk to a previous FOSDEM, you should already have an account in Pentabarf, so make sure that you log in with your existing account. You should only need to create an account if you have not submitted a talk to FOSDEM in recent years. FOSDEM has a bunch of devrooms, so please make sure that you select the "Infra Management" devroom in the "Track" dropdown when you submit your talk. Submissions filed under an incorrect devroom will not be noticed. Submit here: https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM19 Topic Description: Mini-talks from real world case studies, brainstorming and hacking around configuration and infrastructure management from complex virtual environments and cloud computing to desktops and laptops. There is huge interest in automation, monitoring, performance management, configuration management, infrastructure as code and DevOps. We are looking for presentations from people who are working in the field on these topics: * Configuration and Systems Management theory, principles and development * Configuration and Systems Management tools - with an emphasis on real world use cases * infrastructure as code * Techniques and case studies * Audit, Compliance and Security * Various DevOps topics, including collaboration and training tips. Please note that presenting at FOSDEM implies giving permission to be recorded. The recordings will be published under the same licence as all FOSDEM content (CC-BY). This same team of people is also organizing ConfigManagementCamp, which is in nearby Gent on February 5th and 6th. The CFP is also open, and we encourage you to submit your talks before the November 5th, 2017 deadline.
