That would be a different event, I think. GHMs are clearly meetings for GNU hackers, but we’re not sectarian. In the past, developers of non-GNU projects were invited to present their work because it was considered “interesting” for GNU. In Paris, a few non-GNU people heard about the event and asked if they could come, which was fine, of course. Yet, we didn’t advertise it to the “general public.” It seems like a good trade-off to me. WDYT? Ludo’.
