FOSDEM 2022

Developer rooms

The FOSDEM team feels it is very important for free and open source software developers around the world to be able to meet in “real life”.

To this end, they have set up developer rooms (devrooms) with network/internet connectivity and projectors where teams can meet and showcase their projects. Devrooms are a place for teams to discuss, hack and publicly present latest directions, lightning talks, news and discussions. They believe developers can benefit a lot from these meetings.
