All:

We already have some awesome proposals... but we want MORE!
So we're giving you a little more time to get those talk proposals in. 

We have reserved some slots for quick lightning talks (5 min), these can
be done spontaneously at the event, but please do let us know if you are
attending and will likely want to do one, even if you are not 100% sure
yet. That way we can better schedule the time slots.

If you don't want to give a talk, but want to support speakers attending
the Free Java devroom at FOSDEM 2011, please see our sponsoring
campaign: http://pledgie.com/campaigns/14110

Original announcement with adjusted dates follows:
