BrainShare 2011 - Call for Papers

Novell send out the announcement for the call for Session Proposals today.  In case you didn't get such an email, here's what I received:


Dear Mary,
Call for Session Proposals Open Until December 17

The time has come to begin accepting and reviewing session proposals for BrainShare 2011 in Salt Lake City.  The Call for Papers (CFP) will be open from now through December 17, 2010 (5:00 PM MST).  If you have a proposed topic which you believe would be of value to our attendees, please submit it by going to www.novell.com/brainshare and clicking on the “Call for Papers” link.

BrainShare will have a strong emphasis on technical sessions. Preference will be given to the sessions that are more technical in nature and are focused on an intermediate to advance audience.

We are excited to review your session ideas. Year after year, our content continues to improve. We are confident that this upcoming event will be the best ever!

If you have any questions, please contact us at news@novellbrainshare.com.

Thank you,

The BrainShare Team

If you've had a successful project that you'd like to brag about I'd suggest putting in a paper.  A presentation at BrainShare not only looks good on a resume, it gets you some perks no other attendees get.  I'm debating myself, several things are up in the air at the moment and I'm not sure anyone really wants/needs to hear me yakking on.  I'm pretty sure you all got your fill of me at GWAVACon for three years in a row. 

But seriously, if you have a really cool way to do something in Linux, or VM, or ZEN, consider doing a presentation.  And if you'd had a successful migration project that you're willing to share with others give it some consideration, there are those of us out here that would love to hear of your success.

  1. It's 4pm MST - but the "Call for papers" link has been removed. I am sure the early birds are fine with it, but what about a late owl like me :)
