> 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.
>
