...now's the time.
I realize this is short notice, but what can you do. Linux.conf.au (LCA) has its call for papers open for just a couple more days: https://linux.conf.au/call-for-papers/ The event itself is January 21 to 25, 2019. In addition to the regular session submissions, though, people can propose one-day 'miniconfs' for addition to the schedule. Approved miniconf organizers are then responsible for putting together their own program. They are typically single-topic-focused events, and holding one on libre graphics would certainly be a great opportunity for the LG community to engage with a totally different audience than the one that habitually frequents LGM itself. Several folks on this list have put together similar libre-graphics-day tracks at other local, community events in the past, most recently at SCALE in Los Angeles, and they're always enthusiastic and interesting. So if anybody is in the Australia / New Zaeland region (or likes going there), and feels like giving it a shot, this is the chance. Please note that I'm not volunteering to do that: it really would need somebody who's either in the area or is already 100% sure that they'll be at LCA. I've been a couple of times in years past and it's a great community, but it's quite a trip for a lot of us on certain other continents.... Anyway, just tossing that out there. I don't think you'd have to have anything close to a complete plan in place (like what speakers/sessions you'd have); this is just the deadline for proposing a miniconf in general.
