FortranCon2025 opening and Call for Abstracts

Announcements
1

Dear Fortran-lang friends,

We are happy to announce the third edition of the International Fortran Conference:
FortranCon 2025 will happen online on November 4th and 5th.

The keynote speaker will be John Reid. More details on registration and the call for presentations can be found at:

In particular, the deadlines are:

  • First Call-for-Abstracts: August 1st, 2025 (decisions sent by August 30th, 2025).
  • Second Call-for-Abstracts: September 1st, 2025 (decisions sent by September 30th, 2025).
  • Registration (free of charge): October 15th, 2025.

As last time, the conference will be in Europe’s afternoon, America’s morning and Asia’s (late) evening.
This leaves room for an associated local - and possibly even in-person - event such as a workshop on the first day afternoon (US time zones) or second day morning (EU time zones). Please contact us if you are interested to organize such an event.
All presentations will be recorded and made available on the FortranCon Youtube channel.

Best regards,
Alfio and Tiziano
(Steering committee, reachable under operators@fortrancon.org)

That’t right, we will make an announcement for the second call (with deadline extension) pretty soon.

Perhaps this announcement could also be shared in other forums to reach a broader audience. A few that come to my mind are:

Some of the forums (Nvidia) do not tolerate advertisement, not even for a free on-topic conference.
On Reddit the post was automatically removed by filters and I am somewhat reluctant to reformat as opinion post just to get it published.

The conference website gave times for beginning and ending but I did not find what time zone that was in.

@Harper We are working on a draft of the agenda (which will appear at https://events.fortrancon.org/event/1/timetable/). Indico will adjust the schedule to your timezone. We expect to publish it by the end of September.

Then, I’m not sure to which “times for beginning and ending” you are referring to… In general, Indico will show the timezone, for instance in my case I see “Europe/Zurich timezone”. I found this description.

Does FortranCon release videos a while later like CppCon does? It’d be great if that was done, a quick search just let me to the 2020 and 2021 videos, but I guess that they’re available online and that’s not the standard practice

No sure I understand your question…

All videos of the presentation are published on the FortranCon youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@fortrancon.

Thanks for answering. The youtube channel only has videos for Fortrancon 2020 and 2021. Were there no events in 2022-2024? or are the videos not available?

EDIT: nevermind, just saw that the 2025 videos will be made available

Indeed. That’s why you see only 2020 & 2021.
