I won't be able to go this year (it will be only the second one
I've missed), but I can assure everyone that there's a lot of
fun to be had.
You don't have to be a certified card-carrying expert to do a
talk either - even I managed to to give a mostly decent (well,
perhaps depending on who you ask) :-) presentation on the
netfilter/iptables packet filtering infrastructure several years
ago, so if you know more than most about a particular topic that
others could benefit from knowing, please consider submitting a
proposal.
Most importantly, consider attending SELF 2015 - it will be worth
your while.
