> ** Submit your presentations
> To suggest a talk, go to https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM21 and
> follow the instructions (you need an account, but can use your account from
> last year if you have one. Please do NOT create a new account if you
> already have one). You need to create an 'Event'; make sure it's in the
> Free Software Radio track! Your submission should have the following
> information:
>
> * Your contact Email
> * A descriptive title and subtitle of your talk
> * A short abstract
> * Links related to the project
> * [Optional] A longer description of the content of your talk.

> Lengths aren't fixed, but give a realistic estimate, and please don't
> exceed 30 minutes unless you have something special planned (in that case,
> contact one of us). We will typically go for 30-minute slots -- shorter
> talks, unless they're really short, usually tend to screw up the schedule
> too much.

> You aren't limited to slide presentations, of course. Be creative.

> free/open software. We like nitty-gritty technical stuff.

> * SDR Frameworks + Tools
> * Cellular/telecoms software
> * Free/Open SDR hardware

> if you want to present, please make sure to submit your abstracts soon!

> ** Following steps for accepted talks
> When your talk is accepted, you will be contacted by a deputy who will
> help you with the pre-recording of your talk. Together you will make sure
