Tracks are in maroon, and sessions are either blue (meaning there is a confirmed speaker for the session) or gray (meaning it's a good idea, but nobody has yet stepped up to the plate to present that session). Also show suggested tracks and sessions that await a speaker.

Suggest a track (To suggest a session instead just click on a track at the left.) Title: Description: Suggestions will be immediately visible once you submit.

How to become a speaker

All you have to do is suggest a new session for the tree above, or choose to deliver about a suggestion that someone else made.  You do this by clicking the I can teach this! link.  The default is for each session to have one presenter, but if you'd like you can open your session to allow other people to also present along with you.

Although anyone can build out nodes in the above tree, that doesn't necessarily mean that they will stay in that same layout!  The code camp staff reserves the right to organize the tracks and sessions to best manage all the incoming suggestions.

We certainly hope that you will want to participate in the upcoming code camp, either as an attendee or presenter.  Thanks very much for taking a look at the site!

What is Code Camp?

The answer is actually simple. In order to use the official Code Camp name we follow these simple protocols:

1. By and For the Developer Community
   Code Camps are about the developer community at large. They are meant to be a place for developers to come and learn from their peers. Topics are always based on community interest and never determined by anyone other than the community.
2. Always Free
   Code Camps are always free for attendees.
3. Community Developed Material
   The success of the Code Camps is that they are based on community content. All content that is delivered is original. All presentation content must be provided completely (including code) without any restriction. If you have content you don’t want to share or provide to attendees then the Code Camp is not the place for you.
4. No Fluff – only Code
   Code Camps are about showing the code. Refer to rule #1 if you have any questions on this.
5. Community Ownership
   The most important element of the Code Camp is always the developer community. All are welcome to attend and speak and do so without expectation of payment or any other compensation other than their participation in the community.
6. Never occur during work hours
   We need to understand that many times people can’t leave work for a day or two to attend training or even seminars. The beauty of the Code Camp is that they always occur on weekends.
