ApacheCon (ACEU) submissions due today

Deadline is tonight European time. I will submit a talk about the 
OpenOffice/ODF "ecosystem". It will be enough to get one or two more 
talks to build an OpenOffice track, so (as Jan already suggested 
multiple times) if you plan to attend make sure you submit a talk 
proposal and we can then coordinate and avoid overlapping.

Useful links at https://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/FrontPage and remember 
to submit for Apache Conference Europe 2015 (not US!) and for ApacheCon 
Core (not the "Big Data" event).

Regards,
   Andrea.

the difference is the selection process, once we have schedule there are no
difference. The people who build tracks select the talks with little
influence from other reviewers, whereas the rest of the talks are in one
big group, giving a single talk more competition. In case of AOO it means
that without a track it is less likely that all talks will be accepted
(remark, I only
talk theory here, the selection process is just starting).

hope that explains the difference

OK, thanks for being flexible.

Is there a difference between having N talks and calling it a (full or 
half) track? I know that for a track the selection process is the 
opposite (one proposes a track and volunteers to solicit talks), but if 
N (means: a sufficient number) of talks get in I don't see the difference.

   Andrea.

Deadline was last midnight, as said in several mails, but as usual the
apacheCON team accept late entries to a degree.

Nobody from OpenOffice stepped up to build a track, or to help review, so
there are no OpenOffice track planned. That said, I do hope (and are pretty
sure) the
reviewers will point at some AOO talks so we will be represented.
