"Starter deadline"?
That gives us ~1 month. I'm OK with that if we really hit the
announcements hard.
For an event that happens in August, I don't see why we'd close CFP
that early. It doesn't take 4 months to bring together a schedule
from submitted talks.
Even if we're optimizing for marketing lead time (e.g. "Look at the
awesome schedule!") to bring in other people, we'd really only need it
set about 2 months before the event. That puts my back of the napkin
deadline at the end of May.
