Have you submitted a talk for LibrePlanet 2023 yet? For those unsure
if they can make it to the event, we have now set the dates: March
18 & 19, 2023! We have also extended the Call for Sessions (CfS) for
another three weeks, until Wednesday, November 23, 2022, at 10:00 EST
(15:00 UTC). This gives you the chance to make sure that you're a part
of LibrePlanet 2023: Charting the Course.
This year's LibrePlanet is already in its fifteenth edition. It is
organized by the Free Software Foundation (FSF), in conjunction with
the LibrePlanet committee, which consists of a team of excited
volunteers, and we all look forward to hosting an outstanding
celebration of fifteen years of LibrePlanet. Jason Self, one of our
committee members, describes LibrePlanet in an enthusiastic,
forward-looking blog post as "a great way to recharge your free
software batteries each year."
The theme of LibrePlanet 2023 is "Charting the Course." Submit a
session, and, as Jason says, be "at the forefront of [...]
determining the best course to take for the advancement of software
freedom." You will have a marvelous audience to discuss with. We
are looking forward to presenting a fun, interactive, and varied
LibrePlanet schedule with a little bit of everything, so if you have a
nice idea, we encourage you to submit your session regardless of your
level of experience!
