> Subject: [FOSDEM] FOSDEM 2018 - Distributions Devroom Call for Participation
>
> The Distributions devroom will take place Sunday 4 February 2018 at
> FOSDEM, in Brussels, Belgium at the Université Libre de Bruxelles.
>
> For this year's distributions devroom, we want to focus on the ways that
> distribution technologies can be leveraged to allow for easier
> creation of a multi-verse of artifacts from single source trees. We also
> want to continue to highlight the huge efforts being made in shared
> environments around Build/Test/Release cycles.
>
> We welcome submissions targeted at contributors interested in issues
> unique to distributions, especially in the following topics:
>
> - Distribution and Community collaborations, eg: how does code flow from
>   developers to end users across communities, ensuring trust and code
>   audibility
>
> - Automating building software for redistribution to minimize human
>   involvement, eg: bots that branch and build software, bots that
>   participate as team members extending human involvement
>
> - Cross-distribution collaboration on common issues, eg: content
>   distribution, infrastructure, and documentation
>
> - Growing distribution communities, eg: onboarding new users, helping
>   new contributors learn community values and technology,  increasing
>   contributor technical skills, recognizing and rewarding contribution
>
> - Principals of Rolling Releases, Long Term Supported Releases (LTS),
>   Feature gated releases, and calendar releases
>
> - Distribution construction, installation, deployment, packaging and
>   content management
>
> - Balancing new code and active upstreams verus security updates, back
>   porting and minimization of user breaking changes
>
> - Delivering architecture independent software universally across
>   architectures within the confines of distribution systems
>
> - Effectively communicating the difference in experience across
>   architectures for developers, packagers, and users
>
> - Working with vendors and including them in the community
>
> - The future of distributions, emerging trends and evolving user demands
>   from the idea of a platform
>
> Ideal submissions are actionable and opinionated. Submissions may
