Over the month of July, 29 speaker submitted 44 presentations' proposals. But we have only 19 slots, so even limiting to one session per speaker we will not be able to accept all the speakers that submitted a proposal.
Today we are opening the voting phase: till the beginning of September you’ll be able to vote for the 5 sessions you’d like to attend to at the Web.NET Conference on the 20 October.
Speakers are coming from all Europe (and beyond), like Pierre Spring from Switzerland, Niels Hartvig from Umbraco, Jakob Mattsson from Sweden, Maarten Balliauw, Kris van der Mast and Jef Claes from Belgium, Ayende from Israel, Christian Horsdal from Denmark (first proposal received), Robert Mühsig from Germany. Of course also a lot of Italian, like Roberto Messora, Raffaele Rialdi, Massimiliano Mantione (which is now working on the Chrome’s V8 Javascript compiler) and many more.
