==Signing up / Registration==
Please sign up using [http://goo.gl/forms/f8uqHHFL2S this form].  If you have trouble accessing it, email [mailto:convention@coreboot.org convention@coreboot.org]

==Target audience==
This conference and developer meeting is geared towards manufacturers of hardware (processors, chipsets, mainboards and servers / laptops / tablets / desktops / appliances) as well as developers of firmware with an interest in coreboot and the possibilities it offers as well as (potential) coreboot users. Both professionals and hobbyists are invited.
 
==When should you attend==
We're hoping that many people will choose to attend for all four days of the conference, but we understand that many people can't take that much time away. 
 
If your main interest is forging business relationships and/or strategic coordination and you want to skip the technical workshops, Monday and Tuesday will be the days for talks, presentations and discussions.
 
If you are more interested in learning about coreboot development, there will be classes, workshops, and informal discussions on Wednesday and Thursday.
 
If your main interest is doing development, there will be a separate developer room next to the presentation room all four days of the conference.  We will have various development tools available as well as monitors, power, and wireless network access.
 
==Call for presentations==
We are looking for interesting talks/presentations about coreboot related topics for the first and seconds day of the conference. Please note that those presentations are not intended to be advertisements or company portfolio presentations. Expected duration is between 15 and 90 minutes.
 
=== Presentation Deadlines===
Submission: Please send the title, a brief summary, the expected duration and name/organization of the speaker to [mailto:convention@coreboot.org convention@coreboot.org] until '''May 6'''. We will notify you of acceptance by '''May 13'''.
 
==Call for discussion topics and development suggestions==
We hope to stimulate discussion and foster new ideas as well as explore ways to improve code, testing, documentation, development and deployment. The format for this will be a few minutes (5-10) of presenting your idea/topic followed by discussing it with the audience for approximately 5-20 minutes.
 
===Discussion topic Deadlines===
While there is no formal deadline for submission, we'd appreciate a submission to [mailto:convention@coreboot.org convention@coreboot.org] before '''May 27''' to be able to list the topic on the agenda to allow others to think about the topic in advance.
 
==Call for developers==
If you want to do development all day, every day, sign up to come and do it. We have power, networking, development tools and some spare hardware - please tell us in advance if you need something specific.
 
===Getting to the convention===
There are two airports with a reasonable distance of the San Francisco office:  SFO and SJC
 
If you live in the bay area, we are trying to arrange buses from Google's Mountain View offices to the San Francisco office.  Please let us know if you would like to use these.
 
==Accommodation==
We have reserved a block of rooms with Hyatt.
 
==Spare time activities==
We have arranged dinner and a presentation at the [http://longnow.org/ Long Now Foundation] on Tuesday evening.  Because space is limited, only the first 40 people to sign up will be guaranteed seats.
