Lightning talks submission deadline is this week!


The deadline for proposing a lightning talk for YAPC 2002 in Saint
Louis is on Wednesday, 5 June.  That is less than 48 hours from now!
But there is still time to send a proposal.  You can write up a
proposal in less then five minutes.

Lightning talks are five-minute talks.  They're easy to conceive and
to prepare.  They're a great way for beginning speakers to get their
feet wet.  They're a great way for experienced speakers to give extra
talks without hogging all the schedule time.  

This year at YAPC::NA in Saint Louis, we will have 16 lightning talks.
There are several spaces left.  Propose a talk to fill one of these
spaces!

For submission instructions, see the bottom of this message, or visit

To submit a lightning talk, send the title and description to:

        mjd-yapc-lt-2002+@plover.com

The description should be at most four sentences long.  (A short talk
should have a short description!)  Submitters will be notified on 15
June 2002 of whether their talks were accepted.
