The Monitoring & Observability developer room is devoted to all things
monitoring and enabling humans to grok computer, system, and other
data.


Presentation topics could include:
* Anything regarding metrics/logs/distributed tracing/profiling
* Application performance management
* Monitoring tools and technologies
* Using IT best practices in other fields. Maybe you’re managing wind
farms? A brewery?

And general directions could be:
* Beginner-friendly content
* Cultural aspects of building good monitoring
* Success and failures

Talks will have two durations:
* 25 min followed by 5 min Q&A
* 5min lighting talk

Travel assistance

Please note that as this is a community conference with a very tight
budget, we cannot cover any travel or lodging costs.

Recording of talks

The FOSDEM organizers plan to have live streaming and recording fully
working, both for remote/later viewing of talks, and so that people
can watch streams in the hallways when rooms are full. This requires
speakers to consent to being recorded and streamed. By submitting an
event, you give consent for you, your talk, and your content to be
recorded and streamed. You also agree to share your slides in PDF and
optionally other formats. The recordings will be published under the
same license as all FOSDEM content (CC-BY).

Code of Conduct

We follow FOSDEM’s CoC: https://fosdem.org/2020/practical/conduct/. We
also request respect towards the speakers. If questions are
repurposed for commentary, we will shut it down.

In short: Be excellent to each other
