I'm trying to get approval from my employer to attend. Do you know what
the conference cost will be? Can you recommend any hotels? I've never
been to Amsterdam (or Europe for that matter) so any help is appreciated.

We are looking for you to come on stage and talk about all things Cocoon.
People who want to present during the GetTogether are kindly requested to send

cluefulness, in the sense that we don't want any commercial presentations.
Introductory, tutorial-like stuff into new or advanced topics are much
appreciated though. Please send in your presentation proposal to info at
cocoongt.org - see below for a template to help you in filling out a proposal.
