great!!!
[edit]i've finaly found a decent page on the fosdem2006 event
- Can you add more info about FOSDEM 2006? Gronky 12:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Need a better pic
[edit]A picture of some guy who gave one keynote at FOSDEM (among other conferences), with a plain background, is not one bit descriptive of FOSDEM. A picture of the organisers hosting the ending thank you ceremony would be best. 2nd best would be a picture of Richard Stallman speaking - since he's keynoted at all or almost all FOSDEMs so far. Gronky 13:36, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed, why not this one : http://fosdem.3ti.be/preaching_to_the_converted.jpg ?
- That's not bad, although the shape is a bit hard to slot into the article. Gronky 19:57, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
- Well Fosdem in 2007 was an RMS free zone, there is now talk of renaming it back to OSDEM, however there is not yet a consensus amoung the organisers.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.162.211.197 (talk • contribs) 26th of Feb 2007.
- There has never been a discussion about renaming the conference back to OSDEM. Christophe Vandeplas FOSDEM Staff 28 Jan 2009 —Preceding undated comment was added at 10:33, 28 January 2009 (UTC).
On Portal:Free software, FOSDEM is currently the selected article
[edit](2007-02-13) Just to let you know. The purpose of selecting an article is both to point readers to the article and to highlight it to potential contributors. I'm hoping this will attract some contributors to this important article. It will remain on the portal for a week or so. The previous selected article was X Window System. Gronky 12:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- The selected article box has been updated again, FOSDEM has been replaced by CUPS. Gronky 04:33, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Refreshing an out of date fosdem entry?
[edit]Little contribution for a great event. 2007 subsection ALWAYS poor but up to date! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by NGHL (talk • contribs) 22:21, 24 February 2007 (UTC).
