[CFP] FOSDEM 2023 — Image-based Linux and Secure Measured Boot Devroom

The UAPI group, a community for people with an interest in innovating
how we build, deploy, run, and update modern security-focused Linux
operating systems, will host a devroom at FOSDEM 2023.
A "devroom" (a FOSDEM term) is a co-located mini-conference with its
own separate track.

FOSDEM is a free event for software developers to meet, share ideas
and collaborate.
It takes place on February 4 and 5 at the ULB Solbosch Campus in
Brussels, Belgium.
Learn more at https://fosdem.org/2023/.

Our half-day devroom will open on Saturday morning and close at noon.
Drop in for talks on Image-based Linux and secure / attestable systems,
and for a chat with UAPI folks.
