[OHSW.org] Fwd: [FOSDEM] Call for participation: main tracks and developer rooms - DEADLINE TODAY!

[Dr. H. Nikolaus Schaller]

Hi,
is there someone interested in organising a devroom?

Note: the deadline is today.

Anyways it has become less and less liklely that a devroom is granted for a single project (Openmoko, SHR, ...). Rather it is for more general topics like Desktop, Mobile, GUI, Security, ...

BR,
Nikolaus
