All -
   We're getting closer to having a full roster of talks at this 
September's Astricon (and will soon be publishing them) but I'm 
certain that there are some developers out there who have sessions in 
mind on which they'd like to speak who just haven't submitted their 
proposals yet.  Please submit those ideas via the web form here:

   http://www.astricon.net/2008/glendale/web/speaking.php

  Areas of interest are: Advanced technical topics, configuration 
samples, interesting hardware/software configurations, large-scale 
installation overviews, or any other topic that you think would be 
useful to let other Asterisk developers know about.  Talks are 
typically 45 minutes including Q&A session.

   Astricon is a great place to meet people face-to-face, which is one 
of the best ways to really get to know the rest of the community and 
to help allow you to quickly communicate your ideas with others in a 
way that is possibly more refined, rapid, and inspirational than the 
short bursts of ASCII activity which we see here on the mailing 
lists.  I encourage everyone who has the time and resources to attend 
- it's a great place to teach, learn, and discuss.


SPECIAL: This year we'll be doing "Lightning Talks", which are 
strictly limited to 10 minutes, and we'll do clusters of them.  We 
have a number of slots for these, and they are well suited for short 
but very tightly focused discussions of a particular technique, 
deployment, or "lessons learned" format.  If you wish to have a 
lightning talk, please note that your topic submission is for the 
lightning talk.  We will accept lightning talk submissions all the 
way up to the day before the conference.


Where, When: Phoenix, Arizona. September 23-25.
