Rakuten Technology Conference 2008
by TAIRA Hajime 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

Hi, all! I am translating release notes of CentOS to Japanese every time. There is "Rakuten Technology Conference 2008" on Nov 29. The sponsor percussed to me, they said "please talk about 'Free Linux Distributions' in this conference." It is a panel discussion style. *Rakuten is a famous technology company in Japan. The purpose are the following things. - To know the activity of the distributor. - To share the issue that often occurs in Japan. - To increase the number of interested those in development. They want me to speak as a Japanese who is related to the CentOS. May I talk as a member of The CentOS Project? Best regards.

[FOSDEM] FOSDEM 2009: Call for devrooms, stands and lightning talks
by Pascal Bleser 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 FOSDEM is probably the most developer-oriented Free and Opensource conference, taking place in Brussels, Belgium on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 February 2009. Apart from having many invited speakers, the conference offers developer rooms, stands and lightning talks to projects from the Free and Opensource community. We hereby welcome proposals from projects to participate in organizing a devroom, manning a stand or holding a lightning talk. As every year, we have only a limited number of rooms, space for stands and lightning talk slots. Since we always receive more requests than we can host, a committee within the FOSDEM organizing team will review all proposals. Selection will be based on possible impact, our experience of previous editions and diversity in the offerings. *** Devrooms We offer large projects a devroom during the conference. A devroom is a room in which projects can organize their own schedule made of presentations, brainstorming and hacking sessions. Our goal is to stimulate developer collaboration and cross-pollination between projects, and as such we strongly favor projects with similar goals and domains to host a devroom together. See http://fosdem.org/2009/call_for_devrooms_and_stands *** Stands We offer stands to projects that want to present themselves to the visitors in a more personal fashion. Stands can be used to share information, demo software, sell merchandizing or give away goodies. See http://fosdem.org/2009/call_for_devrooms_and_stands *** Lightning talks We offer lightning talks to all other projects that want to present themselves. A lightning talk is a short talk in which a project can introduce itself, talk about recent developments, or share exciting new directions. See http://fosdem.org/2009/call_for_lightningtalks FOSDEM 2009 will be the 9th edition of the event, which has been steadily growing every year in importance and in the number of visitors. Our goal is to provide a platform to Free and Opensource projects to meet, discuss, present their current and future developments, both to their own developer and user community as to other projects that are present. Given the large amount of active contributors from many different projects present during the conference, it is an exceptionally well suited occasion to share goals and ideas with people from other communities, which is something we strongly encourage and do our best to support. Of course, the event only lives through the projects that take part in it, and through the many FOSS contributors who attend. We merely do our best to provide the best possible service to the FOSS community at large. *** Key dates: * 2008-11-22: Deadline for devroom & stand requests * 2008-11-30: Devroom & stand acceptance notification * 2008-12-26: Deadline for lightning talk requests * 2008-12-29: Lightning talk acceptance notification * 2009-01-09: Deadline for final devroom & lightning talk schedules * 2009-02-07 to 2009-02-08: FOSDEM 2009 For more information, visit http://fosdem.org/ Feel free to forward, kind regards, The FOSDEM Team - -- -o) Pascal Bleser <loki(a)fosdem.org> http://www.fosdem.org /\\ FOSDEM 2009 :: 7 + 8 February 2009 in Brussels _\_v Free and Opensource Software Developers European Meeting -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFJEhmmr3NMWliFcXcRAuMXAJ4+q1QnQ8K9Jpdjnht4uo27hoIyrgCeLiBV jn68og3FoU9PBahsZCQNv64= =9npI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ FOSDEM mailing list FOSDEM(a)lists.fosdem.org http://lists.fosdem.org/mailman/listinfo/fosdem
