A good talk proposal should be concise (fewer than 600 words) and include the following information:

• Who would be presenting.
• A short title or topic statement for the presentation.
• Whether you think this topic would be best served as a full (15 minute) presentation, a lightning talk, or a Q&A panel.
• Which of the suggested topics your presentation covers; or, for a new topic, how it relates to the workshop series scope.
• What unique information, experience, or perspectives you would provide.
• For live video chat panels, what times of day (in UTC timezone) are you available for?
