[wg-all] XSEDE14 and OGF 41 Call for Session Proposal Submission Deadlines - Act now!

[Sill, Alan]

Dear OGF colleagues,

Please take note of the XSEDE 2014 submission deadlines discussed below.  Visualization Showcase abstracts, Birds of a Feather proposals and poster abstracts—including student poster abstracts—are due on April 21. Additionally, student travel grant applications are due the same day.

In addition, please note that OGF has a Call for Session Proposals open at the OGF web site at the link below. While there is not an explicit deadline, we are under practical limitations to finalize our room requests and would for this reason appreciate receiving your working group and community group session requests as soon as possible. At this time, we anticipate receiving requests from the GLUE, JSDL, BES and other related working groups and expect to receive session proposals from groups in the Security and Data areas also, such as FedSec, Identity Delegation, CAOPS, etc. Other session requests and BOFs are welcome. Please send them in via the link for this purpose in the page linked below.
