This year will be the eighth edition of the Free and Open Source software Developers' European Meeting, one of the largest and most technical open source confereces in Europe. Attendance is completely free: For the first time, this year there will be a joint 'developer room' for the various BSD projects and PostgreSQL coordinated by Daniel Seuffert. A tentative schedule for the devroom is at the bottom of this mostly-German wikipage: . As you can see, there are still some blank spots. If you're coming to FOSDEM (of course you are!) please consider contacting and giving a talk about an interesting FreeBSD-related project. If you're not coming to FOSDEM, perhaps I can change your mind by mentioning the annual FOSDEM beer event. This year, the event will take place in a much larger bar with a much larger selection of beers than previous years: We all know that the 'B' in BSD is for 'beer' ... and who knows what the 'S' and the 'D' might come to mean after a number of Belgian 'B'. :-) See you in Brussels? - Philip -- Philip Paeps Calm down ... it is only ones and zeros philip@freebsd.org
