The Open vSwitch project, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project,
9+
will host its tenth annual conference focused on Open vSwitch and
10+
OVN on November 20&amp;21, 2024. The conference will be hybrid. Talks
11+
will be presented live during the conference. We are planning to
12+
use an online system that allows for text-based discussion, and live
13+
Q&amp;A while the talk is happening for virtual attendees. Each talk will have time
14+
reserved following the presentation for further discussion via both
15+
text, over video and audio, and live with the presenters. Each talk will
16+
be given once.
17+

<h2>How to propose a Talk</h2>
