Requests for Proposal for hosting XDC 2018

Requests for Proposal for hosting XDC 2018

[Daniel Vetter]

Hi all,

The X.org board is soliciting proposals to host XDC in 2017. By the usual
rotation a location in Europe is preferred, but the board will also
consider other locations, especially if there's an interesting co-location
with another conference.

If you consider hosting XDC, we have assembled a wiki page with what's
generally expected and needed:

https://www.x.org/wiki/Events/RFP/

If possible the board would like to decide on the next location at XDC
2017 in Mountain View, please submit your proposal with at least the key
information about location, possible dates and estimated costs to
board@foundation.x.org latest by 31th August. An early quick heads-up to
the board if you consider hosting would also be good, in case we need to
adjust the schedule a bit. Also earlier is better since in generally there
will be a bit of Q&A with organizers.

And if you just have some questions about what organizing XDC entails,
please feel free to chat with a previous organizers, or with someone from
the board.

Thanks, Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Is Call for Papers opened yet for XDC? When do they usually start accepting 
proposals?

Regards
Manasi

Hey Manasi,

Our call for paper is usually sent around June with a deadline for
mid-August. Here is the call for paper from last year, we do expect it
to change: https://www.x.org/wiki/Other/Press/CFP2016/

Hope that helps :)

Martin
