Re: Última parada antes del Call for Presentations



Here is the proofread text. It should not take long to modify.
Things in [] are comments.  Sorry for the weird indents. I copied and
pasted from Netscape.  Please note the paragraph merging in the last
section. They were a bit too short and I think this works better.

Sorry about the delay responding.





              GNOME Foundation will hold its third annual GNOME Users
and Developers
              European Conference 2002 in Seville, Spain, from April
4-6, 2002. 

              This year, we are going to try a new procedure for
accepting papers for 
              GUADEC. Every presentation, tutorial or workshop should
have a paper that
              will be reviewed by a commitee formed by GNOME
top-hackers, local
              organization members and independent persons from other
big Free
              Software or Open Source projects. 

              Papers should meet the following requirements:

                  XML/DocBook format 
[Generally / is not punctuation. Is this the standard way of referring
to that format?]
                  1500 - 4000 words 
                  English language 
                  Abstract 
                  Licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License 

              If you have a problem with the above mentioned conditions,
please contact
              <g3submissions gnome org> or at the #guadec channel on
irc.gnome.org. 
              The deadlines work as follows: 

                  Authors of papers or technical presentors are invited
to submit abstracts
                  (150 - 400 words) by the January 25th deadline. 
                  Final papers (1500 - 4000 words) should be submitted
by Febrary 15th. 
                  You will recieve feedback from the revision commitee
by February 28th. 
                  The deadline for the final version of the papers is
March 15th. 
                  All papers will be published in the GUAD3C website by
March 18th in
                  several formats (DocBook/XML, HTML, PDF). 

              Take a look at this diagram for an intuitive approach of
the actions that have to
              be done and the deadlines to follow. 

              Conforming to the GNOME Documentation Style Guide is
encouraged. 

              Audience 

              The GNOME developer community has grown from the original
days, where a
              developer could keep track of all of the development
efforts in the GNOME world. 
Today over 700 developers have CVS access. 

Open the door to non- GNOME core developers. In the past, GUADEC was an
event mainly targeted to developers of the GNOME platform. 
GUADEC 3 will open the doors of GNOME to developers who may be
planning on using the GNOME 2.x platform. It will allow them to hear and
meet experienced GNOME hackers.
