SMOFCon Programming leader Tom Whitmore has posted a message about SMOFCon Programming that’s worth repeating here on the front page:

SMOFCon is almost upon us! We’ve had several people indicate that they’re pulling together some items to suggest we talk about them at the con — I’m excited about them, and I want to remind everyone that doing advance planning if you want to present something is encouraged. Not everything may appeal to enough people to have us talk about it officially, but I’d bet that there will be some people who want to talk with you about whatever excites you; if you tell them, they’re more likely to do so. That’s one type of item that shows up at this sort of program.

The other major type is the “questions I always wanted to ask, but couldn’t find someone to answer” item. It’s okay to suggest an item that you don’t want to lead; it helps if you can suggest people who might want to lead it. They can say “No!” if they want, of course.

See you all next weekend!
