The online voting for this years conference on the submitted talks has ended, and with 117 people taking place in the vote, wow. There are 3 very popular talks, which have received the most voting points, the "winner" with most voting points is "Asynchrony and Coroutines", closely followed by "Taming the performance beast" and "awaiting for the ranges: C++17".

What I changed this year, is how the votes are weighted, like last year, people which have a ticket for this years conference have a higher vote weight of two instead of one, but if you return to the conference, its from this year on 3. This has had not a huge influence on the results, but weights a bit more in this years attendees.

The overall vote is now the base to create this years program on, there are 4 very well voted talks, and a group of 7 talks following, which I will accept most to the conference. In the top 4 there are two talks about ranges, also FP and template meta programming seems to be very popular this year. The top 5 talks voted talks for Meeting C++ 2015 are:

• Asynchrony and Coroutines
• Taming the Performance Beast
• Awaiting for the ranges: C++17
• From Iterators To Ranges: The Upcoming Evolution Of the Standard Library
• Avoiding the Synchronisation Quadrant

This leaves 2 more spaces in the popular track on the main stage, which I am not sure about which talk to pick currently, as this should be a combination of good talk and good speaker. It seems to be one talk on template meta programming. The general C++ Track is already filled, just the question, which talks I should pick for this track. This years theme track is embedded, I hope to have the full program of Meeting C++ 2015 until the begin of May ready!
