[FOSS4G-Oceania] ResBaz Sydney - lightning talk opportunity, 9:45am Thursday 5 July

[adam steer]

HI Cameron, all

Thanks for making some slides happen at short notice. I think the audience
will be an easy sell :)

I was planning to emphasise the presence of an academic track - since the
lure of a publication may be the only way the crowd at ResBaz can get
funding to attend the conference, or more importantly justify time to
prepare contributions.

Key items:

- academic track submissions will be peer reviewed
- proceedings will be published here: https://scholarworks.umass.edu/foss4g/

Also to note - many of the lightning talk attendees will have just sat
through two days of software and data carpentry workshops - so another
angle might be ‘you’ve just learned some coding stuff, now come see some
ways to apply it…'

Just a thought - I may be completely misreading the
audience/scope/environment.

and thanks again!

Adam
