James Titcumb (ID: 000000d1f015ab73) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/15/2015 Handy, works perfectly with OpenCFP which is important, and even works with many other submission systems, which makes submitting via Google Forms for example easier. Also, if it doesn't work, you can just bug @rdohms on Twitter and he fixes it in like 5 minutes.
