@@ -25,11 +27,6 @@ Choosing talks is part art, part science; here are some factors we consider when
 - _no third-party submissions_: This is a small community-driven event, and speakers need to be directly engaged with the organizers and attendees. If a PR firm or your marketing department is proposing the talk, you've already shown that as a speaker you're distant from the process.
 - _no vendor pitches_: As much as we value vendors and sponsors, we are not going to accept a talk that appears to be a pitch for your product.

-<strong>How to submit a proposal:</strong> Send an email to [{{< email_organizers >}}] with the following information
