Tips When Applying for CFP and Golden Grot Awards: Judges Share Details
summary
Golden Grot submissions split into two winners: professional (focus on business value, data sources, blast radius) and personal (quirky, emotion-driven projects); deadline Feb 9 and winners get all-expenses-paid conference tickets plus a Grot trophy and stage time. CFP judging uses a scorecard with 14 judges and rewards concrete cross-project integrations, measurable outcomes or surprising numbers, clear tooling (Grafana, Mimir, Loki, Tempo, Pyroscope), and tangible changes made from metrics; 15-minute lightning and longer formats welcome, passion trumps polish.
