by Schneide blog

From the article:

A fellow colleague and me had the pleasure to attend this years Meeting C++ 2019 from November 14th-16th in Berlin. It was my second visit and a quite interesting and insightful one. Therefore I would like to give a short summary and share some of my take-aways...

Sean Parent to keynote C++ on Sea 2020

We're thrilled to announce that Sean Parent will be joining us as our third keynote speaker for 2020. A few things had to click in to place before we could make this announcement, so it's a big relief that we can finally let the cat out of the bag!

Sean Parent - our third keynote speaker

From the article:

Some years ago, Sean worked on Photoshop at Adobe. Apparently he liked it so much we went back to work on it again! He's also worked at Apple and Google - but many in the community know him, particularly, for raising our awareness of algorithms.

ACCU 2020 Call for Proposals

The ACCU 2020 is now putting together its program, and they want you to speak on C++. The ACCU has strong C++ tracks, though it is not a C++-only conference. If you have something to share, check out their

Call for Proposals

by the ACCU

About the conference:

Historically, ACCU has a lot of C++ and C content, and is proud of that: ACCU is the foremost annual conference for people interested in C++ and C, at least in and around the UK. But it is not just a C++ and C conference, ACCU is about programming in whatever language people are using, with whatever tools and processes people are using: D, Chapel, Java, Kotlin, C#, F#, Groovy, Rust, Go, Python, Ruby, Lisp, to name just a few programming languages about which there have been sessions at ACCU conferences. Git, Mercurial, CMake, Meson, TDD, BDD, allthese tools and techniques have been the focus of sessions at ACCU. The ACCU Conference is looking for sessions that will be interesting to people who create software.

The ACCU Conference is put on by ACCU (https://accu.org), but is open to anyone who wishes to be there either as a presenter or an attender.

The Call for Papers lasts for about 3 weeks and will close on Friday 2019-10-25 23:59+01:00.

From the article:

CppCon 2019 was the first year in our new home at the Gaylord Rockies in Aurora, Colorado.

Long before I’d ever done it, I told people that I thought that moving a conference is almost as much work as starting one from scratch. Now that I have moved a conference, I’ve learned that started a conference from scratch is actually easier than moving that conference after it has been growing in one location for five years...
