FOSDEM 2017 call for proposals has started:

  https://fosdem.org/2017/news/2016-07-20-call-for-participation/

We need help with writing the proposal (we can build on last years
this time), we need help on selecting talks and we need help creating
the schedule. Finally, if we get a slot, we need help to organise the
day.

Who wants to be part of this exciting day? 

Pj.
