We're pleased to announce that the FOSS4G UK 2019 call for talks and
workshops is now open.
http://uk.osgeo.org/foss4guk2019/talks_workshops.html

This year FOSS4G UK will be at Dynamic Earth in Edinburgh from the 18th to
21st September, with the main conference on the 19th and 20th. This is a
friendly, relaxed conference where we discuss all things free, open source
and geo-related.

Talks
If you have something interesting you'd like to share with the community
about your use of free and open source software in the world of Geospatial,
then we'd love to hear from you, we welcome submissions from any subject
areas, and have slots available for 20 minute talks (talk proposals should
be 500 words max).
Submit your talk here: http://tinyurl.com/foss4g-talk-proposal

Workshops
If you would like to lead a workshop, we will be running two parallel
workshop sessions during the main conference. Proposals can be from shorter
hands-on demo sessions to whole-day in-depth tutorials. We will select
proposals to create a varied programme.
Submit your workshop here: http://tinyurl.com/foss4g-workshop-proposal

Unconference
There will also be an opportunity during the conference itself to
contribute to an 'unconference' session - this is likely to be an informal
session of lightning-style talks (more details closer to the event).

Closing
The closing date for submissions for both talks and workshops is the 30th
April. We look forward to hearing from you!

This is a little unclear to me, are the workshops on the 18th or the 21st
or during the main conference (19th/20th) - if not on the 18th or the 20th
what is happening on those days?
