Talk selection results for FUDCon Pune 2015
by Siddhesh Poyarekar
Hi,
We finished our talk selection discussion last week and we have now
conveyed our decision to speakers whose talks we have accepted and
also those whose talks we have declined since we could not accommodate
all submissions in the main tracks.
There are a number of additional submissions that fall into one of
these categories:
- They are on a waiting list in case speakers from the accepted talks
are not available
- They align with the Containers, OpenStack/Cloud or Software defined
storage tracks that we decided to host separately at the conference[1]
- They are proposed to be merged with another proposal - these are
primarily workshops where we felt that there was an overlap and that
the workshop could benefit from both submitters working together on
one proposal
- We felt the submission was suitable for a specialized BoF or a
breakout session.
We will try to finish this in a couple of days. Following that we
will publish the list of selected talks and workshops on the fudcon.in
website.

RFV: request for videos
by shreyankg@gmail.com
Hi,
We are planning to release a video, for FUDCon India 2015, publicity
purpose.
To that effect, we would like to request volunteers to record selvies
(selfie videos, using front camera from your phones, webcam is just fine ).
Volunteers are supposed to answer the following questions:
* what Fudcon means to you
* why should one attend Fudcon
* any Fudcon stories
The above questions should be taken as general guidelines, and not hard
requirements. Try *not* to send email attachments; links to videos hosted
on fedorapeople, Google Drive, Dropbox should be acceptable.
Thanks in advance.
