We're looking for session proposals for TC Drupal Camp 2013.

stpaultim's picture

Do any of our friends that were in Portland last week have some great ideas for TC Drupal Camp sessions?

Deadline to submit a session is less than two weeks away!

Please, post your ideas here. Let's try and get a little discussion about what sessions people would like to see and encourage others to offer these sessions....

Session submission update

stpaultim's picture

We had a great discussion about possible sessions for TC Drupal Camp at the user group meeting last night. I'm confident that we'll be seeing a flurry of session submissions in the next few days.

:-)

We currently have 16 proposed sessions and 28 sessions slots and I know of at least 3-4 more proposals on the way. So, we're making good progress.

We have 10 days until the deadline for submitting sessions (June 9th).

Here is a list of what we have so far:

http://2013.tcdrupal.org/schedule/proposed-sessions

It's not too late to suggest something you'd like to see offered. We have some skilled presenters that have yet to submit session proposals and might be interested in your suggestion.

Sessions submissions are coming together

stpaultim's picture

It's great to see the variety and quality of sessions proposals coming in. However, we can still use more. The deadline is this coming Sunday. Take a look at what's been proposed so far and fill in the gaps with your own proposal.

http://2013.tcdrupal.org/schedule/proposed-sessions

Again - if there is something missing in our schedule that your not ready to organize, post your suggestion here for someone else to take-up. Or if your looking for a co-presenter, you can post a note here.
