We have room for a couple more talks. If you fancy a 5-15 minute slot on anything a room of software developers would enjoy, pitch one here: https://forms.gle/1kE99y9gdw3xDAMcA
First-time speakers are very welcome, and we are happy to help you shape the talk. You do not need to speak to come along, all are welcome.
