Submit your talks for Akademy 2025 now!

[bshah at kde.org]

Hey all!

This is your reminder that the deadline to submit your talk is in *almost one 
week away (May 15th)*! We want to know what you've been working on, 
what you're passionate about, and what you think the rest of the KDE 
Community (and the FOSS world at large) needs to know about it!

Details for this year's call for participation can be found on the 
website: https://akademy.kde.org/2025/cfp/ 
<https://akademy.kde.org/2025/cfp/>

As a general reminder of topics we are looking for,

KDE is more than a desktop environment! We are asking for talk proposals on 
topics relevant to the KDE community and technology such as:

- How KDE can empower building robust communities in changing political 
climates
- Work towards KDE's goals: Streamlined Application Development Experience, We 
care about your Input, and KDE Needs You
- Giving people more digital freedom, sovereignty, and autonomy with KDE 
software
- Guides on how to participate for new users, intermediates and experts,
- New developments/plans for KDE Frameworks, Plasma, Applications and other 
projects
- Anything else that might interest the audience.

If you have any questions about your topic or the submission process, 
don't hesitate to reach out the talks committee at akademy-talks at kde.org.
