devLink 2009 Call for Speakers announced

devLinkLogo

Tonight I spent several hours working on the devLink website, ugh.  If you have any thoughts, please pass them on.  I just posted the devLink 2009 Call for Speakers for those who are interested in presenting at the event.  

Currently the plan is to have seven (7) tracks and those are fluid based on the session abstracts we receive.  We have to find qualified speakers for each track and fill that track.  The core tracks will consist of the following:

  • Client App Dev
  • Web App Dev
  • Architecture and Practices
  • Database
  • Project Management
  • Application Lifecycle Management
  • Open (just that, open game so any type of session will be considered)
  • Open (In-Depth), these are 3 hours sessions so you can get more detailed than you have before. 

If you have an idea you would like to share, please make it known to me.  I personally would love to see some systems based sessions, but we will have to see what comes. 

The date for submitting your session abstracts is March 13, 2009 and that is a firm date.  Every speaker will have to present a minimum of two (2) sessions so I recommend you put in at least 4 ideas, but the more you send in the better off you will be.  One more thing that I didn't put in the submission form.  I would recommend you put your preferred sessions at the top of the list.  It won't get you any special points, but you could get selected quicker with your best ideas being first.

If you have any questions about whether a session would be of interest, please let me know.
