A recent discussion (on Twitter I believe) noted that to carry Clojure more into other communities we should give talks at non-Clojure focused conferences etc. I think that makes sense and intuitively it seems that this kind of cross-pollination between communities is a good thing.
So — let’s make a list of conferences/events that may accept Clojure-related talks.
Please include conference date/CFP deadlines if CFP is already open. I will update this post.
Love the idea and initiative. People, submit talks !
I think I’ll propose something for Best of Web (French, in Paris, mostly front-end, I’m a previous co-organizer/MC of the first editions ), but feel free to propose something.
There’s ClojureSYNC in New Orleans the weekend after mardi gras Feb 15 and 16. I have no idea if all speaker slots are taken but it can’t hurt to ask. Not sure if Eric is planning unsessions like the conj’s but there might be a chance that you could give talks even if all speaker slots are filled anyways.
I will be doing a presentation from a beginners perspective:
"Why I chose Clojurescript, lessons learned & experiences gained 18 months later in retrospect. "
