>>
>>    1. Panels (30-60 minutes)
>>
>> Panels may discuss any topic as long as it’s relevant to LLVM or related
>> sub-projects. Panels can take many forms, but a common format is to begin

>> should consist of at least 3 people and have a moderator.
>>
>>    1. Posters (1 hour session)
>>
>> Posters presenting work using LLVM and related subprojects. Poster
>> presenters will answer questions from attendees and give mini
>> presentations.
>>
>> As this conference is virtual and our very first, we are still working
>> out the numerous details. The length of the talk types below are subject to
>> change, but the above gives you an idea of what we expect. The majority of
>> the talks will be pre-recorded except for panels, birds of a feather,
>> posters, and possibly lightning talks.  In addition, we will be requiring
>> most speakers to participate in some form of live Q&A. Time zones are a
>> huge challenge with a virtual conference and we will do our best to be
>> reasonable in our expectations.
>>
>> The timeframe for submission is also much tighter due to allowing time
>> for speakers to record and us to process videos. We apologize for the
>> inconvenience.
>>
>> Submission Requirements:
>> The submission deadline is July 15, 2020 at 11:59PM PDT.
>>
>> Please submit your proposal here:
>> LLVM2020 Submissions <https://hotcrp.llvm.org/usllvm2020/>
>>
>> For each proposal, please submit a title, short abstract, submission
>> type, abstract for the website, include who the speakers or panel
>> member/moderators are, and provide a more detailed description of the talk
>> through an extended PDF abstract. We highly recommend you consult and
>> follow the guide at the end of this CFP when submitting your proposal.
>>
>> FAQ
>>
>> When will I be notified of acceptance?
>>
>> Our goal is to notify all submissions by July 31, 2020.
>>
>> When is the conference?
>>
>> In order to not conflict with another large virtual conference, we have
>> moved the 2020 LLVM Developers’ Meeting to October 6-8. The exact times of
>> the conference are still under discussion.
>>
>> Should I register if I have submitted a proposal?
>>
>> Given this is a virtual conference and we have less space restrictions
>> and a different fee structure, you can register at any time before the
>> registration deadline. We will be providing details on registration in
>> July.
>>
>> When will the recordings be due?
>>
>> Recordings should be completed by September 14.
>>
>> Will I be required to have a video camera?
>>
>> We do not want the lack of recording equipment to prevent submissions and
>> will be sorting out options to help those without recording equipment
>> available. Please stay tuned for details.
>>
>> When will my live Q&A be?
>>
>> As the conference is virtual, our attendees and speakers will be in many
>> different time zones. We won’t know the program until closer to the event
>> and then we can start to form a schedule. Our schedule will attempt to meet
>> the needs of many time zones, but will not be a perfect solution. You may
>> be asked to give a live Q&A early in the morning, late at night, or
>> multiple times.
>>
>> Who is on the program committee?
>>
>> The program committee is composed of active developers of the LLVM,
>> Clang, and related sub-communities. The website will be updated with the
>> list of the program committee members.
>>
>> I have a question, who do I contact?
>>
>> Please email the LLVM Dev Mtg Organizers (
>> devmtg-organizers at lists.llvm.org), or the LLVM Developers’ Meeting
>> mailing list. http://lists.llvm.org/mailman/listinfo/llvm-devmeeting
>>
>>
>> Detailed guidance on writing a proposal for the LLVM Developers’ Meeting
>>
>> Writing a proposal for the LLVM Developers’ Meeting
>>
>> This document is a guide to help you submit the best proposal and
>> increase your chances of your proposal being accepted. The LLVM Developers’
>> Meeting program committee receives more proposals than can be accepted, so
>> please read this guide carefully.
>>
>> If you have never presented at an LLVM Developers’ Meeting, then do not
>> fear this process. We are actively looking for new speakers who are excited
>> about LLVM and helping grow the community through these educational talks!
>> You do not need to be a long time developer to submit a proposal.
>>
>> General Guidelines:
>>
>>    - It should be clear from your abstract what your topic is, who your
>>    targeted audience is, and what are the takeaways for attendees. The program
>>    committee gets a lot of proposals and does not have time to read 10 page
>>    papers for each submission (excluding SRC submissions).
>>    - Talks about a use of LLVM (etc) should include details about how
>>    LLVM is used and not only be about the resulting application.
>>    - Tutorials on “how to use X” in LLVM (or other subproject) are
>>    greatly desired and beneficial to many developers. Entry level topics are
>>    encouraged as well.
>>    - Talks that have been presented at other technical conferences tend
>>    to not get accepted. If you have presented this topic before, make it clear
>>    what is new and different in your talk.
>>
>>
>>
>> Technical Talk and SRC Talk  Proposal Template:
>> ** Include in the extended abstract PDF attachment **
>>
>> Title:
>>
>>    - This will be displayed on the website, schedule, and signs. Keep it
>>    short and catchy to attract attendees to your talks. A couple of examples
>>    are “WebAssembly: Here Be Dragons” or “Beyond Sanitizers: guided fuzzing
>>    and security hardening”. There is also a field in the submission form for
>>    this same title.
>>
>>
>> Description:
>>
>>    - 1-2 paragraphs. You can also use this for the Website Abstract
>>    field in the submission form.
>>    - We suggest you proof read and pay attention to grammar.
>>
>>
>> Details:
>>
>>    - Here you can include more details about your talk. An outline, demo
>>    description, background of the speaker, etc. 1-2 paragraphs is usually
>>    sufficient.
>>    - This section will not be published and is intended for the PC to
>>    better understand how interesting your talk will be to the audience. For
>>    example, if you would prefer not to reveal some conclusions in the
>>    published abstract, explaining them here ensures that the PC can take them
>>    into account when evaluating your proposal.
>>
>>
>> SRC Paper:
>>
>>    - If this is an SRC talk, please attach your paper as well.
>>
>>
>> Panel Talk Proposal Template:
>> ** Include in the extended abstract PDF attachment **
>>
>> Title:
>>
>>    - This will be displayed on the website, schedule, and signs. These
>>    tend to be very straight forward about the area being discussed. An example
>>    is “Future directions and features for LLDB”. There is also a field in the
>>    submission form for this same title.
>>
>>
>> Description:
>>
>>    - 1-2 paragraphs. May also be used for the website abstract field in
>>    the submission form.
>>    - Provide some talking points or potential subtopics.
>>    - We suggest you proof read and pay attention to grammar.
>>
>>
>> Details:
>>
>>    - Provide additional details: goals of the panel, and example
>>    questions. Panels are to brainstorm and discuss ideas on a specific topic
>>    between the experts on the panel and the audience. You should also include
>>    detailed 2-3 sentence bios for each speaker on the panel. You may or may
>>    not include speaker names as the submissions are blind.
>>
>>
>> Tutorial Proposal Template:
>> ** Include in the extended abstract PDF attachment **
>>
>> Title:
>>
>>    - This will be displayed on the website, schedule, and signs. Keep it
>>    short and catchy to attract attendees to your talks. There is also a field
>>    in the submission form for this same title.
>>
>>
>> Description:
>>
>>    - 1-2 paragraphs. May also be used for the website abstract field in
