[FOSSRIT] Apply to be a speaker at All Things Open!

Hey FOSSers, I wanted to reach out to everyone on the list about an upcoming conference in October 23-24, 2017. All Things Open is a conference for, well, all things open: software, hardware, the web, and more. It's in Raleigh, North Carolina, so not **too** far of a trip for a FOSS conference. https://allthingsopen.org/ The call for speakers is open now until March 28th, so it is coming up soon! But the conference organizers are especially looking for students and young people to get involved too, so this could be a great opportunity if you want to try something new and share your knowledge and experience with the world. https://allthingsopen.org/call-for-speakers/ If anyone wanted to submit a talk, you could work on putting a proposal / abstract together over the weekend or early next week. You could, of course, ask for feedback and ideas here on the list so we could help you build a strong proposal. :) But it's a fantastic opportunity and I think there's a lot of people here in the RIT community who might have more they could share then they realize. If you have questions, you're more than welcome to ask! Wanted to throw this out there while there was still time to think about it. :) Hope everyone is surviving the first week back of classes! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com
