It is not the idea of the event to talk about women in free software, or women in debian, but rather talk about Debian subjects. |
The idea behind the conference is not to talk about women in free software, or women in Debian, but rather to make discussion about Debian subjects more inclusive for women. If you agree with this goal, spread the word. Forward this call for potential speakers and help us make this event a great success! |

Submissions are not limited to traditional talks: you could propose a performance, art installation, debate, or anything else. |
If you have one or more proposals, please send it to proposals@bcn2014.mini.debconf.org. Don't forget to include in your message: your name or nick, the title of the event, description, language, and any other information that might be useful. We will try to get some sponsorship to help with speakers' travel expenses. |

This year submission of a formal written paper for the conference proceedings is again optional, though encouraged. Providing a written paper in advance means that interested people can attend your session ready with ideas for discussion, and especially helps those who find it hard to follow rapid English speech. |
Please submit your proposal(s) before the 31st of January so that we can start the evaluation process and build the conference program. We might continue to receive proposals after date if there is still free space in the schedule. |

We hope to see you in Barcelona! |

All talks are welcome, both newbie level and very advanced level. We would probably divide them into tracks. | For more information, visit http://bcn2014.mini.debconf.org |

If you have one or more talk proposals, please write us at debian-miniconf@cpl.upc.edu (public list). It doesn't imply a commitment for that talk, but it could give us an idea of what talks could be available. These are open ideas of things that might be interesting to present. Feel free to send us new ideas even if you don't plan to give the talk yourself. * Running Debian in your mobile phone * The Debian Welcoming Team * Introduction to packaging in Debian * Doing translations for Debian |
