PostgreSQL Conference Europe 2017 will be held on October 24-27 in the Marriott Warsaw Hotel, in Warsaw, Poland. It will cover topics for PostgreSQL users, developers and contributors, as well as decision and policy makers. For more information about the conference, please see the website at https://2017.pgconf.eu/.

We are very happy to announce our keynote speaker, Alex Papadimoulis, CEO of Inedo and founder of The DailyWTF (http://www.thedailywtf.com/).

We'd also like to remind you that we are still accepting proposals for talks, in english.

Each session will last 45 minutes, and may be on any topic related to PostgreSQL. Suggested topic areas include:

* Developing applications for PostgreSQL
* Administering large scale PostgreSQL installations
* Case studies and/or success stories of PostgreSQL deployments
* PostgreSQL tools and utilities
* PostgreSQL hacking
* Community & user groups
* Tuning the server
* Migrating from other systems
* Scaling/replication
* Benchmarking & hardware
* PostgreSQL related products

Of course, we're happy to receive proposals for talks on other PostgreSQL related topics as well.

We may also have a limited number of longer, 90-minute, slots available. Please indicate clearly in your submission if you wish to make a 90-minute talk.

Finally, there will be a session of five minute lightning talks. A separate call for proposals will be made for them further on.

The submission deadline is August 7th. Selected speakers will be notified before August 22nd, 2017.

Please submit your proposals by going to https://2017.pgconf.eu/callforpapers/ and following the instructions there.

The proposals will be considered by committee who will produce a schedule to be published nearer the conference date.

All selected speakers will get free entry to the conference (excluding training sessions). We do not in general cover travel and accommodations for speakers, but may be able to do that in limited cases. If you require assistance with funding to be able to attend, please make a note of this in the submission notes field.

This call for papers is also available on the web at https://2017.pgconf.eu/callforpapers/

We look forward to hearing from you, and seeing you in Warsaw in October!
