[AusNOG] AusNOG 2019 Call for Presentations.

[Terry Manderson]

Colleagues, 


Here starts the AusNOG 2019 Call for Presentations.

I'm sure you have all been waiting with bated breath!

AusNOG 2019 will be held on the 5th and 6th of September at 
Sofitel Melbourne.

As usual we are making a call for people to submit proposals 
for talks at AusNOG 2019 that would be of interest to the
Internet operations community, ie technical presentations and 
not sales talks.

Previous year's feedback has strongly suggested that AusNOG 
participants prefer to hear from operators. So, we are especially 
looking for operators to share what they know! 
(for example, sharing experiences about the NBN, deployments, or things
that truely impact operations).

Notes to presenters
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Preference will be given to presentations that result in actual
operational outcomes.

Speaking slots are typically 30 minutes, including Q&A time, although we
can accommodate a limited number of requests for 45/60 minute slots. We
would also entertain requests for 15 minutes. There will be a call for
lightning talks (5 minutes) closer to the event.

By submitting a presentation for consideration in the AusNOG 2019
programme, and if selected the presenter will allow AusNOG to:

* Take photographs of the presentation and presenter
* Record and rebroadcast video and audio of the presentation and
 presenter
* Redistribute the presentation slides, audio, video, and photographs
 electronically, on the AusNOG website, or otherwise but leaving
 all intellectual property in the hands of presenter or rightful
 property holder[1].

Presenters receive complimentary registration while those not selected
will be offered registration at the early bird rate.

[1]: AusNOG accepts that some speakers are unable to allow us to archive
their presentation due to company or corporate policy, and if the
situation arises AusNOG will delete all copies in its possession after
the presentation.
