FOSDEM 2008 Meeting Kicks Off Tonight

Posted by Michael Larabel on February 22, 2008

FOSDEM 2008, the annual Free Open-Source Developers' European Meeting, is taking place this weekend in Brussels, Belgium. The official talks don't get underway until tomorrow, but tonight they are hosting a Belgium Beer Event. In addition, tomorrow night is also a GNOME Beer Event and an iMATIX Free Beer Event complete with West African music. We've previously covered the DevRooms and talks for this year's FOSDEM (including X.Org).

We'll be providing coverage this weekend from Brussels of FOSDEM 2008 and these related Linux/open-source activities. At RadeonHD.org we will also be recording videos of the X.Org talks. We hope to be publishing these videos to this web page within an hour of each talk.
