For immediate release.
GUADEC is the annual conference of the GNOME community, held in Europe
since 2000. GNOME is a free software project which drives user
interfaces of many GNU/Linux-powered devices, ranging from smartphones
to laptops and personal media centers. GUADEC is the world's largest
gathering of users and developers who are involved with the free
desktop and mobile user interfaces. GUADEC is expected to draw
hundreds of attendees who will discuss and direct the future of the
GNOME project. Developers, artists, translators, users, and
representatives from government, education, and businesses, and anyone
else who shares an interest are welcome.
GUADEC 2015 will be held for the first time in Gothenburg, Sweden. The
conference will be held August 7th to August 9th, with extra days
afterwards available after the core conference days for hackfests and
meetings.
The schedule of the conference mirrors the ongoing development of the
GNOME project:
* Design of the core user experience (core applications, shell, toolkit)
* Design of the developer experience (tools, documentation, services)
* Integration and extension of the operating system plumbings into the core UX
* Application development and deployment
* Integration of web technologies into the GNOME user experience
* Improving the user experience on different form factors
* Outreach to new contributors
* Organization and governance of the project
Submissions that do not fit into these categories are also welcome,
provided that they are relevant or inspirational to the GNOME
community.
The Call for Participation for GUADEC 2015 has the following timeline:
1. Sunday, May 3rd: Deadline for submission of abstracts
2. Sunday, May 17th: Notification of speakers
3. August 7th to 9th: The conference takes place in Gothenburg, Sweden
Please submit your proposals before May 3rd through the online
submission system available on the GUADEC website, available at:
https://www.guadec.org.
Presentations will be reviewed by the program committee between May
4th and May 17th.
A separate call for lightning talks, workshops, and birds of a feather
sessions will be issued later in May. If you are interested in
organizing a workshop session, BoF or project room during the second
part of GUADEC, please wait until the relevant call for participation
is made.
The program committee is looking forward to your submissions to
participate in GUADEC 2015 and contributing to turn the event into a
large success. In case of questions regarding the Call for
Participation, please contact the program committee at
guadec-papers gnome org. For general questions regarding the

GUADEC organizing team.
On behalf of the papers committee,
