CFP examples
Some excellent examples to draw upon when developing a CFP. Highlights include communicating to proposers:
* conference's distictive character
* suggested or preferred topics
* logistics such as where, when, audience size, etc
* speaker package such as travel, honorarium, etc
* evalution process
* timelines
* assistance available for new speakers
* mutual expectations
