[Call for presentations] 2nd Workshop on Configuration Languages

Dear Kubernetes users,

I’m happy to announce CONFLANG, the second workshop on configuration languages, colocated at SPLASH 2023. Some of you may use a configuration language on top of plain YAML, such as Dhall, Ksonnet, Nickel, CUE, YAML templating languages, etc. Please consider submitting a talk if you have any opinion, experience or idea to share on this!

Feel free to share this CfP to any network or community you see fit.
