[TOS] OSCON 2010 : One proposal submitted, and posted in the Wiki

FYI

Following Karsten's guidelines,
I just submitted to OSCON 2010 the abstract on:

"Educating the next generation of FOSS developers"
http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/OSCON_2010#Educating_the_next_generation_of_FOSS_developers

and added to the Wiki the exact text of the final proposal:
http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/OSCON_2010/Educating_the_next_generation_of_FOSS_developers


Freel free to use it as a model, but beware that this is
the first time I write a proposal for OSCON.... so if you
have better experience (or better sources of advice),
you may not want to rely too much in these links above.   :-)

> Below is the information on how to propose an education track.

> Let's get all our plans lined up on the wiki within the next week, but
> any of us can begin submitting using the guidelines below.
>
> * Include a link to our central page in "Additional Notes";
> * Put "Education" in the tags field.
>
> Just so we don't step on each other, shall we at least provide each
> other this:
>
> 1. Title
> 2. Mini-asbtract (~255 characters)
>
> ... by the end of this week (Fri. 22 Jan)
>
> We'll then plan to have the web page tightened up as it can be by the
> following Monday.  The main reason to give us until this Friday before
> any (more) of us submit talks is to (i) coordinate complementary
> talks, and (ii) share ideas so we have better abstracts in aggregate.

>  The OSCON proposals are reviewed and voted on by a committee of open
>  source community members from a broad range of projects. The easiest
>  way for us to review an education track is as individual proposal
>  submissions, so the committee has a clear idea what each talk is
>  about. Include a link to the page you put together in the
>  "Additional Notes" field and put "Education" in the tags
>  field. (We'll be reviewing the tags people submit to decide which
>  should be promoted to tracks.)
