Okay but keep in mind that the earlier I buy the airplane ticket 
the cheaper it gets so please don't take too long to finish that.

If you have ideas for an interesting talk, submit a proposal, and
perhaps you may have your costs covered?
It's great to see people coming from such different parts of the world!

Oh, so they cover the costs if I can give an interesting talk? I 
already had several ideas in mind to speak during DConf but I 
never imagined that could get my costs covered.

Travel + accommodation as I understand it.

But yes that is covered if you do a talk.

If you submit a talk proposal and it's accepted, then you are 
eligible after the conference to have your travel and 
accommodation expenses reimbursed. As long as they're reasonable 
(e.g. no first-class plane tickets or 5-star hotels, etc.).

While I encourage you to submit a talk, I'll point out that there 
were only six regular talks per day this year, and a lot of those 
were core contributors, Andrei's students, and prominent members 
of the community. So hope for the best but maybe don't be too 
disappointed if there's no room on the schedule.

Most definitely, submit a talk. I wouldn't worry about having 
"credentials," interesting talks from people who are not regular 
speakers are always welcome.

A major part of that outcome was the low number of total proposals. The 
core contributors and others kind of chipped in to save the day. We want 
tons of proposals.

Also, it's low cost to submit, so there's no reason not to do so. 
Even if it's turned down, you don't have much to lose. You'd 
obviously have more information about the proposals than I do, 
but there must not have been many given how few presentations 
came from outside the inner circle this year.

Even if a proposal gets turned down, one can always submit it at another 
programmers' conference, or even a meetup. They're always looking for material.

(I gave a talk at a meetup just last month.)

Note that my schedule over the next year will probably preclude 
me from having the time to prepare a talk. So there'll likely be 
one slot that I usually take waiting to be filled by someone with 
great new ideas.

This is something I'd personally prefer in general to be honest. 
It's a far better display of an active community if it's not just 
the same people presenting every year.

Well, I'll be trying to arrange my schedule so I can raise my 
hand for emcee duties again at least. So I won't be _completely_ 
invisible.

If I was submitting, given the success of my "ground up tutorial" 
approach this year I'd also straight up ask in the general forums 
if there's any topics I should cover. So if I don't do a talk, at 
least someone else will have a solid idea for one ;-)

Hey! That’s awesome! The conferences are usually around May. And 
the announcements and finalization don’t really have a specific 
date but usually around Jan/feb ish (just did a quick search for 
the different years).

Cheers
