Last Updated September 2019

Introduction

The Reading Lists are primarily intended for new or first-time attendees or for anyone who wishes to familiarize themselves more deeply with the topics which will be under discussion both in the Developers Forum and the Conference.

The lists are updated for each event, generally by a few weeks before the event, although additions and changes may be made subsequently (for example links that were not available when the list was initially updated).

Unpublished documents, for which a link cannot be provided, will be made available prior to the event to all registrants.
