OpenPrinting News - Opportunity Open Source 4.0 - Schedules and contributions published
Only a little more than 2 weeks left to the Opportunity Open Source 4.0 in the IIIT Allahabad in India! Until now we accepted more than 50 amazing proposals to nearly completely fill our 3 rooms during two and a half days of conference! Therefore we have scheduled our sessions now!
Here are the full schedules and the list of contributions (which we published already some time ago). Click on the entries to read the abstracts and get more details about each session.
Note that the schedules are still subject to change, as we still did not close the CfP yes, or perhaps we need to move some sessions when speakers are not able to attend all 3 days, or remote speakers are not able to deliver their contribution at the assigned date and time.
Also watch out for further info on our site, about the location, about remote attending, and speakers could add slides, preparation instructions and exercise repositories for workshops, ...
And if you think that you can add more to the content of our conference, then hurry up, as there are still 3 days of the Call for Proposals left! And space for 5 40-min (or 10 20-min) talks/panels and 3 workshops!
Friday, August 14, 11:59pm IST (18:29 UTC)
