Call for Papers
The call for papers for the Séptimas Jornadas Regionales de Software Libre (seventh regional Free Software conference) is now open. The conference will take place in the city of Córdoba, Argentina, from the 9th to the 11th of August of 2007.
- Society
- Education
- Technology
- Business
In these lanes we aim to cover topics as diverse as Free Software in the state, NGOs, businesses, science and education; the challenge of gender in Free Software; topics related to the community, philosophy and politics; technical topics (programming, administration, security, etc.); art, communication, and culture.
Our intent is to have a broad offering of talks of a basic and introductory level. This is because we believe that a smaller quantity of this level of talks would work against the main objective of the event, which is promoting Free Software. The idea is that at all times there will be at least one of the more than seven conference rooms giving a talk at an introductory or intermediate level. For this reason, we ask that the members of our community, in addition to the excellent talks to which we are accustomed, you take the time to prepare talks on simple topics, such "free email clients and how to use them", or "how to browse the web with free software", or "free instant messanging", or similarly simple things.
If you want more details about which subjects are covered by each track, or what we mean by "introductory-level talks", you can read our website: http://jornadas.grulic.org.ar/
The papers will be reviewed by an international committee of renowned members of our community. The acceptance of the talk will depend on this evaluation, and on our physical and technical capacity.
The deadline for presenting your work is May 19th, 2007.
You should send an email with:
- Title of the talk
- A brief description (about 50 words) of the talk, to be included in promotional material.
- An abstract of the talk (between 200 and 300 words), explaining the content of your talk.
- A small curriculum of the speaker (between 100 and 250 words).
