EuroLLVM 2022 will be held in person this year! This event will be May 10-11 in London, UK.
It has been incredibly hard to plan events during the pandemic as our decisions are made months in advance without a crystal ball to know how the pandemic will change. However, we feel that there is enormous value in in-person events.
EuroLLVM will be smaller than in years past. We are currently planning on a 2 day event with a single track and another room for round table discussions. Please note that this may change based upon the proposals we get.
To give you an idea of rough time line:
February: Venue selection, call for proposals
March: Proposal deadline
April: Proposal Notification (aiming for 1 month before the event)
May: EuroLLVM
This is a little bit of a tight schedule, but given the conference is smaller, we hope it is achievable.
We also plan to restart the LLVM Foundation travel grant program, but we may have some additional restrictions due to the pandemic. Please stay tuned for details.
Lastly and probably most important! I’m looking for volunteers to form a program committee to help with proposal selection. If you are interested in helping out, please fill out this form here: https://forms.gle/bqHyrNFBJqeo5MEt5
Hello! I just filled out the form and noticed that it says we will be notified on June 10th. I thought this could be a mistake since the meeting will be held in May, and just wanted to let you know
@tonic Please can you update the llvm.org homepage to mention that eurollvm22 is happening (even if its just says May 2022) ? It still currently says the nov21 devmtg is ‘upcoming’
I don’t want to make a fuzz, but 2nd week of May is only 8 weeks from now. It would be great to get an official announcement or at least the exact conference days as soon as possible. Otherwise I will have a hard time to get it scheduled.
I am 90% sure the dates will be May 10 & 11 (do not take this as an official announcement though), but for some reason (most likely staffing/pandemic) it has been very slow to secure the venue despite starting the venue search several months ago. I can’t announce until I have the contract signed. This is not how I normally like to do things either.
Visa timelines may be too tight for this event, but I don’t know the specifics of everyone’s situation. We think that those more local to the area would be able to join and the event has been scaled back in terms of size to anticipate this. Normally we would have a much longer lead time to help with visa applications.
