During the summer doldrums, we liven things up in a sweltering August with our annual Dog Days of DevOps meeting! It'll be online via zoom, look for the link once you RSVP!

This is a special format where we have a bunch (10+) of 5 minute lightning talks! It's a great opportunity to give your first talk, or try out a topic you're considering for a larger talk, or whatever! All tech related topics are welcome, anyone can speak.

Sign up in the comments below with your name and a short sentence about the talk (e.g. "Ernest Mueller - The DevOps Centipede, different forms of team organization to implement DevOps") and we'll put you on the list! Hard 5 minute limit, we have a timer and gong you at the end!
