FOSS4G 2020 will be in Calgary, Canada this year, from August 24-29.  
It seems so far away, and yet, the first submission deadline is almost here…

> **[Submit by February 4 for the Opportunity for Early Acceptance - FOSS4G Calgary](https://2020.foss4g.org/early-acceptance/)**
>
> Submit by February 4 for the Opportunity for Early Acceptance The FOSS4G 2020 early acceptance deadline is approaching! Talks submitted before February 4, 2020 are eligible \[…\]

  
If you submit your talk to the Call for Papers before February 4,  
you will be eligible for Early Acceptance!  
[https://2020.foss4g.org/speakers/](https://2020.foss4g.org/speakers/)  
Why submit early? We hope early acceptance will help speakers begin  
planning their conference experience earlier, with the certainty  
that you’ll be an accepted speaker. Early acceptance also helps  
us build out the program and communicate the value of FOSS4G  
to new attendees.  
Help yourself, help us, submit your talk early!  
Thanks for your help,  
We’re looking forward to seeing you all in August,  
Matthew Hanson and the FOSS4G 2020 program committee
