[arch-events] FrOSCon 2012 Newsletter #1
by Pierre Schmitz 26 Jun '12

26 Jun '12

I am forwarding this email: G'morrow, FrOSCon friends, for the seventh time, the FrOSCon organisational crew invites you to the Free and Open Source Software Conference, taking place on 25th and 26th of August at Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg. We are proud to be able to happily announce another year of exciting talks, projects and workshops while, of course, keeping an eye on providing you with a lot of fun during the weekend as well. Despite of being a bit late this year, preparations for the conference are running at full power. Getting together on many occasions, including a coming up weekend at the Linuxhotel in Essen [1], a heavily grown team of well-known and newly motivated volunteers is working hard to create everything that makes out a fruitful conference. As we put high efforts in all things organisational, as a matter of fact the success of the conference depends highly on you when it comes to presentations of projects, talks and workshops. Thus, let's introduce you to the upcoming calls for papers and projects [2]! This year, especially the kids track (also referred to as FrogLabs) is undergoing a heavy re-design, now allowing young minds to present their projects and ideas to other "hackers" their age [3]. FrOSCon e.V., being a non-profit organisation, depends on your donations. Should you or your company be able to support us, maybe by means of opting for a sponsoring package, that would be highly welcomed. You are invited to direct all questions and offers regarding this to sponsoren(a)froscon.de. We are looking forward to meeting everyone who visited us throughout the last years and of course also many new visitors! Nik, for the whole of the FrOSCon organisational crew Unsubscribe from newsletter?

[arch-events] Introducing...
by Camila Ayres 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

Hi, I am Camila, a KDE developer, an ArchLinux user for more than one year by now. I met one ArchLinux programmer at FOSDEM, I think his name is thomas (sorry for my bad memory for names) wich told me that you guys usually don't have time to organize booths in some events, make t-shirts etc (ok, I also know there is the money issue) So I would like to help with this, besides my wish to start to package for ArchLinux. I am Brazilian, currently living in Berlin, where I have contacts that could give me information about how/where to make this kind of promo material. We could even plan some meeting in Berlin, that would be awesome. I don't know how many of you are close by. Nice to meet you all! p.s: btw, apparently my requests to participate in some of ArchLinux mail list were denied, I didn't receive any confirmation after I subscribed :( Cheers, Camila Ayres camilasan.com

[arch-events] arch linux meetups @ FOSDEM
by Dieter Plaetinck 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

So, looks like a bunch of Arch devs and users are coming to fosdem this year. [1] let's talk meetups! here are 3 ideas: * friday afternoon: some guys will do some sightseeing. Since even those who arrive around noon / early afternoon will arrive at different moments, maybe let's not try to hard to get everybody together yet at this point. Tom and Pierre, I'll let you decide on this one. You'll be earliest, maybe you don't want to waste your time at this point meeting up with various folks as they arrive at different times. although, since the warandepark is near our hotel, maybe you could meet up with interested people there (if any?), just a thought * friday evening: meetup downtown @ 7PM in front of TBD (looking for a place near "grand place" where one can shelter should it start to rain). We'll go out for dinner and afterwards drinks. We'll visit the [http://fosdem.org/2012/beerevent FOSDEM beer event] but it's usually insanely overcrowded so we'll probably go somewhere else. * saturday evening: meetup at the conference @ 7:15PM (last talks end at 7PM) @ [http://fosdem.org/2012/schedule/room/h1301 Cross Distribution Devroom H.1301. no sure yet what to do. another drinks/dinner?

Hi, I've added myself on [0]. I'm still looking for an acoomodation. I've got a low budget so maybe I'll be couchsurfing to reduce the costs. Are some of you interested in car sharing or to meet in the same train? I'll be kind of flexible, maybe I'll meet Jan & friends (travelling by train) or maybe I'll come by car with a friend or maybe I'll meet _you_ ? I could meet you in Frankfurt, Mainz, Ludwigshaven, Mannheim, Trier, Saarbruecken or in Luxembourg. Please let me know if you offer/need a car seat and what your schedule exactly is so that I can adapt mine. How will the arch beer evenings look like? Will it just be a "have a drink get-together"? Or more kinda hack center where people are working on linux and/or soldering and/or arduino stuff, maybe playing with some ARM-based devices like dockstar, sheevaplug, ... running Arch Linux of course (except the arduino).

Hello guys, FOSDEM is the biggest free and non-commercial event organized by and for the community. Its goal is to provide Free and Open Source developers a place to meet. No registration necessary. => as usual, the programme is awesome, and it's your chance to meet lots of interesting folks. => free entrance. => sat/sun 4/5 february => friday 3rd, evening: fosdem beer event. although that is always insanely overcrowded, so if there's enough interest, we could do our own arch-users drink on friday (or on saturday) => free guided tour through brussels for partners/spouses http://fosdem.org/2012/ if you're coming to fosdem 2012, please add yourself to the list below, and also mention which days you can come. if there's enough attendance/interest on friday evening, we could organise our own meet up. also, we could do something on saturday evening. I know some people already mentioned they would come, but didn't say which days. So forgive me for the slight redundancy, but I would like one list with the days so that it's easier to know when we can meet up in group or between individuals. list so far: - Dieter Plaetinck (fri,sat,sun) Dieter
