Fineract Talks for Apachecon NA in Montreal?
Hi All
With Myrle being selected as a keynote speaker (congratulations :-) for Apachecon NA in Montreal, it could be a great opportunity to promote the project to a wider audience or even simply meetup.
The Apachecon CFP is open so is anyone interested in making a submission? Example talks could be things like a progress report (what has happened, what is planned), a beginners guide (how to get started), practical user example (a user story from an implementation), etc.
What do people think?
Thanks
Sharan

Well reminded Ed!
Please be aware that the CFP closes at midnight GMT, which at midnight London, UK time.
Also if anyone has been putting it off until the last moment, then it's time to do it now :-)
Thanks
Sharan

Sharan is an awesome speaker and can definitely help you make a
top-notch submission. If you get a speech accepted to ApacheCon, and
you're not sure how to pay for your travel, please keep in mind that
you can apply for travel assistance from TAC.

I agree. I would be willing to help 1 or 2 people offline by
proofreading abstracts before you submit them, and making suggestions.
Is anyone else willing to help new speakers?
