FOSDEM is calling you

Written by Robin Muilwijk Tuesday, 13 October 2009 19:00

FOSDEM, a developer-oriented Free and Opensource conference in Europe, will be taking place in Brussels, Belgium on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 February 2010. Over the weekend FOSDEM has placed several calls for participation.

Your participation is asked in several areas such as Main Tracks, Devrooms, Stands and Lightning talks. You can find full information about the calls here. This years edition will be a special one because this is the 10th time the event will be held.

FOSDEM 2010 will be the 10th edition of the event, which has been steadily growing every year in importance and in the number of visitors. Our goal is to provide a platform to Free and Opensource projects to meet, discuss, present their current and future developments, both to their own developer and user community as to other projects that are present.

Key dates:

2009-11-29: Acceptance notification of stands and main tracks
