Hi guys, FOSDEM is calling! (4-5 February, in Brussels, Belgium)
And this will be the time: - we meet Europe-wide (and more); - we can handle a booth to demonstrate Mageia; - lots of cool people and cool talks happen to happen; - we hold our annual general assembly (with a moral and financial report); - 1/3rd of the board is renewed - there are 6 board members, so that makes for 2 people to be elected among current Council members; see https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Org#Mageia_Board - council should be re-elected (that is, team leaders re-elected). So. - who will be there? (I will) - who would like to act there as a Mageia member? (booth, conference) - what do we need?

See http://fosdem.org/2012/call-for-participation on how to submit proposals. * Manning a stand We offer open source projects a place for a stand in the hallways. Stands can be used to share information, demo software, sell merchandising, give away goodies and so forth. Stands allow projects to present themselves to the visitors in a more personal fashion. See http://fosdem.org/2012/call-for-stands for more details * Talking in a devroom We will be hosting 25 (!) different devrooms, covering a broader spectrum of the open source landscape than any year before. The accepted devrooms are: Ada -- BSD licensed operating systems -- Configuration and Systems Management -- Cross Desktop -- Distribution Miniconf -- Embedded -- Free Java -- Graph Processing -- Hardware Security and Cryptography -- JBoss.org -- Legal Issues -- LibreOffice -- Mono -- Mozilla -- Multiserver -- microkernel-based operating systems -- MySQL and Friends -- Open Mobile Linux -- Open Source Game Development -- Open Source Telephony -- Open Source Virtualization and Cloud -- Perl -- PostgreSQL -- Smalltalk -- World of GNUstep -- X.org and OpenICC See http://fosdem.org/2012/call-for-participation for the list of announcements or contact [email protected] for a contact address. * Lightning talks We have a special lightning talk room for all remaining open source projects that do not fit in any of the devrooms. Lightning talks are short 15 minute focussed talks in which one person gets to present the project or an aspect of it. See http://fosdem.org/2012/call-for-lightningtalks for more details. FOSDEM is organized by and for the community, non-commercial and highly developer-oriented. Its goal is to provide Free and Open Source developers a place to meet. Now is the time to become part of it.
