Hi folks,
I'm starting to organize GNUstep's presence for FOSDEM 2005, and
specially the talks part.
The FOSDEM is the annual Free and OpenSource Software Developer
European Meeting, held in Bruxelles at the ULB
(Université Libre de Bruxelles) the weekend of the 26/27 of february
2005.
Basically, there is a lot of people that goes to this event, and most
of them are developers. As such they are
exactly the people we need to attract on GNUstep, that's why it's
important to have a presence here and advertise and explain
as much as we can GNUstep technologies.
Previous FOSDEM were really interesting on this point of view, but we
can do much better ;-)
What we're trying to have is a booth (for demos, etc.) and a
developer's room -- both shared with the OpenGroupware.org project.
We don't have a confirmation yet, but in order to have the developer's
room, we need to give a list of the planned activities.
I think that having some talks would be interesting, presenting some
works, software, parts of gnustep, ideas, etc.
Even if the FOSDEM seems still quite far, I must emphasis that time
pass quickly, and moreover, that it's really not a good idea
to plan things at the last minute (last year we were lucky to get a
booth, but it was just that -- luck.
And the booth was not exactly in the best place ever :-).
So... if we want to have talks, we need to start a list of the proposed
talks that we could give back to the FOSDEM guys.
I added a wiki entry here :
http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/fosdem%202005
which explains a bit what we will do, who will attend the event, etc.
Everybody that intents to go to the FOSDEM is strongly encouraged to
add its name (it will help us to see how many people we'll have..)
And of course, everybody that would like to speak about GNUstep-related
topics is strongly encouraged to add a talk proposal as well :-)
Thanks,
