Your Fosdem 2015 submission

[Andreas Thienemann]

Hello Neependra,

First of all, apologies for the delay in getting you this status update 
about your talk submission.
We had a lot of submissions to review and unfortunately real-life 
intruded more than expected.

You have submitted a talk proposal "Evaluating Container Performance 
with respect to bare-metal and VMs" for the Distribution Devroom at 
Fosdem 2015.
Thank you very much for your contribution and for helping make Fosdem an 
interesting conference.

I am sorry but I have to tell you that your talk offer has been declined 
for the distribution devroom.

We had a lot of excellent submissions and as we unfortunately only have 
two days of conference time some talks could not be accepted.

In your case we found that the description of your talk suggests a 
different audience than we are trying to reach with the distribution 
room.
The distribution devroom is aiming at the maintainers of Linux 
distributions and the toolset they use.
Your talk however seems to be focusing on virtualization performance 
comparison which is rather independent of any distribution maintainers 
work.
As your talk might be of interest for the virtualization devroom however 
I have reassigned it to that devroom. Unfortunately I have no insight 
into their planning and cannot say anything about your chances there.

Again, I am very sorry we do not have better news for you. I do hope 
that you'll submit another talk next year at which point we'll hopefully 
be able to find space in the talk schedule for you.

Should you have any questions or comments you can contact the devroom 
organizers at distributions-devroom at lists.fosdem.org.

Cheers,
Andreas Thienemann on behalf of the Distribution Dev Room Program 
Committee
