Next WSLConf date set, CFP now open through 15th August

WSLConf is the first and only community conference dedicated to Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).

Canonical proudly sponsored the first WSLConf in March 2020. Since then Ubuntu 20.04 on WSL 2 has arrived and support for AI/ML workloads is available in Windows Insiders.

With WSL growing, WSLConf community organizers did not want to wait another year to gather the community together. WSLConf is returning in September 2020 in virtual form, as microWSLConf.

microWSLConf will feature a virtual hallway track for unscheduled conversations by attendees and breakout sessions for affinity groups.

The schedule for microWSLConf has been broken into two shorter sessions expanding the geographic reach of the virtual conference to Europe, Africa, and Asia.

microWSLConf is still accepting presentation proposals through 15 August. Submit a presentation proposal at wslconf.dev.

Planned speakers to date include:

Hayden Barnes
Engineering Manager for Ubuntu on WSL at Canonical
Microsoft MVP

Nuno do Carmo
Analyst, Ferring Pharmaceuticals
CNCF Ambassador, Docker Captain, and Microsoft MVP
