Technologist, HP; Peter Eckersly, Chief Computer Scientist, Electronic Frontier Foundation; John Sullivan, Executive Director, Free Software Foundation; and Jon 'maddog' Hall, Executive Director, Linux International. "The DebConf content team is pleased to announce the schedule of
DebConf15, the forthcoming Debian Developers Conference. From a total of
nearly 100 talk submissions, the team selected 75 talks. Due to the high
number of submissions, several talks had to be shortened to 20 minute
slots, of which a total of 30 talks have made it to the schedule.

In addition, around 50 meetings and discussions (BoFs) have been
organized so far, as well as several other events like lightning talk
sessions, live demos, a movie screening, a poetry night or stand-up
comedy."
