> LibrePlanet 2015 <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015> is coming! We're
> excited to announce that next year's conference will be held *March 21-22,
> 2015 in Cambridge, MA*. The Free Software Foundation is teaming up with the
> Student Information Processing Board at MIT once again to bring you a
> conference you won't want to miss. Our Call for Sessions
> <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/call_for_sessions/> is open now, and you
> can also apply to volunteer <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/volunteer/>
> or exhibit <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/exhibit/> at LibrePlanet 2015.
> General registration will open in October.
>
> You've got until Sunday, November 2nd, 2014 at 19:59 EST (23:59 UTC) to submit
> your proposals <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/exhibit/>. We can't wait
> to see what you come up with!
>
> This year, the theme of LibrePlanet <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015> is
> "Free Software Everywhere." We're looking for talks that touch on the many
> places and ways that free software is used around the world, as well as
> ways to make free software ubiquitous. Think "everywhere" in the broadest
> sense of the word--it's not just geography-based talks we're after. What
> are some contexts where free software is thriving, and some others where it
> needs a push? How have you worked to gain a stronghold for free software in
> your company or community? And what about free software on all of the
> myriad pieces of hardware we use, including laptops, phones, tablets, and
> even coffee makers? At LibrePlanet 2015, we're taking software freedom
> around the world, to outer space, and consider its role in industry,
> government, academia, community organizing, and personal computing.
>
>
> Should I submit a session proposal for LibrePlanet?
>
> Yes! We encourage speakers of all experience levels to submit a proposal.
> LibrePlanet is a great place for new and seasoned speakers alike. While
> LibrePlanet always includes technical talks, our program also emphasizes
> non-technical topics and topics that are appropriate for newcomers. We are
> especially interested to see proposals from people who use free software or
> apply its values for social benefit, from academic research to community
> organizing, education to medicine and the arts. LibrePlanet is committed to
> increasing the participation of speakers belonging to groups traditionally
> underrepresented at free software conferences, including women and people
> of color.
>
>
> Some ideas for sessions
>
> -
>
> Sharing a story of how free software has been applied for social benefit
> -
>
> Tackling a threat or organizing challenge facing the free software
> movement
> -
>
> Demonstrating a new and exciting piece of software or development within
> an existing software project
> -
>
> Engaging youth, the future of the free software movement. We're looking
> for proposals for all age groups, from young children, to high school age,
> to college students
> -
>
> Thinking critically about challenges and opportunities facing the
> movement, and charting a path to victory
> -
>
> Bringing a key part of free software history to life
> -
>
> Giving newcomers a way to learn about free software principles and
> philosophy, and/or giving newcomers a way to start using free software in
> their daily lives
>
> At LibrePlanet, we are looking for sessions that embrace the free software
> movement's ideals and also its language. For example, using "free software"
> is better than using "open source".
> Volunteer for LibrePlanet
>
> LibrePlanet depends on volunteer support during the planning process all
> the way through the event. We're looking for volunteers who want to help us
> with the planning and preparation work for LibrePlanet. Learn more about
> volunteering and sign up at LibrePlanet.org
> <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/volunteer/>.
> Promotional opportunities at LibrePlanet
>
> LibrePlanet is the perfect place to spread the word about your organization
> to an inspired and engaged audience. We have two kinds of promotional
> opportunities for LibrePlanet 2015: exhibit tables and sponsorships.
> Exhibit tables will be located in a highly visible primary thoroughfare.
> Your table and program acknowledgement will reach hundreds of software
> developers, free software activists, academics, students, and computer
> users. You can apply for an exhibit table at LibrePlanet.org
> <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015/exhibit/> Exhibitors will be accepted on
> a rolling basis until the hall fills, so apply early!
>
> What makes LibrePlanet <https://www.libreplanet.org/2015> so special is the
> amazing contributions from our speakers, exhibitors, and volunteers. We
> can't wait to hear your ideas!
