I am extremely pleased to have confirmed the entire speaker line-up for foss north 2017. This will be a really good year!

foss-north 2017: Call for Papers
The Call for Papers for foss-north is open for another week (until the 12th). This gives you an opportunity to speak in front of a great crowd.
