The deadline for submitting sessions proposals for DrupalCon DC is December 10. If you'd like to present but haven't yet submitted, please submit your session before midnight! So far, almost 150 session ideas have been submitted and discuss a variety of topics. It's exciting to have such a large and varied pool to select the final sessions from - and to know that we're well on our way to having a high quality conference.

In the weeks after the deadline, we'll work with a volunteer committee (please contact us if you want to help) to go through the proposals - and in conjunction with the votes each has received - select the best sessions for each track, merge ones that overlap, and ensure that each track has good depth and representation.

The final schedule will be posted to the DrupalCon website in January. If you have a last minute session idea, we have plenty of space for BoF sessions which will be scheduled on the fly.
