The 6th edition of FOSDEM (Free and Opensource Software Developers' European Meeting) will take place on February 25+26 2006 in Brussels (Belgium), at the Solbosch Campus of the ULB (Free University of Brussels). FOSDEM is a free and non-commercial event for the community and organized by the community. See http://www.fosdem.org/ We were thinking of the following setup: - Saturday from 13:00 to 17:30 - "End-User talks" presentations to promote what we all build together to a wider audience that might have heard of what we do, but haven't actually seen it in action/put together. We might also want to have a "lightning" hour with lots of quick Demos of applications running on a completely free stack (5 - 10 minutes per demo). - Sunday from 09:00 to 12:30 - "Developer talks" presentations of things that are in progress and that people want to explain in more depth to get developers of the other projects to join in a share the fun. - Sunday from 13:00 to 17:30 - "The Future" hard core interactive technical hacker discussions on how to integrate the projects more and move forward in the next year. Arnaud Vandyck, Dalibor Topic, Mark Wielaard, Michael Koch and and Tom Tromey will be our "program committee" this year. If you would like to present something, have an idea for a demo or discussion topic please let us know at fosdem-at-developer.classpath.org Please mention the title, a little abstract, which track and whether you want to do a quick demo, a short 30 min talk or full hour talk (we prefer 30 minute talks to give everybody a chance to present something). Deadline for proposals is December 18, so you have a month to think of something cool. Then we make sure to have some kind of "formal program" at the start of January. Examples of presentations and reports from previous years: http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/events/escape_fosdem05.html http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/events/fosdem04.html Some ideas for interesting topics: - Free Swing - The Demo! - Your GNU/Linux distro and the free runtimes - package overview. - From 0 to 100 in 15 Minutes: Getting started with GNU Classpath=20 development using Eclipse, JamVM, Mauve, and the ChangeLog plugin! - Integrating with Objectweb through native-(gcj)-JOnAS - Writing OpenOffice.org plugins using a free software stack. - Using GNU Classpath/gcj/kaffe for games - Using free runtimes on Wine and other win32 environments - Embedding GNU Classpath in web browsers and support for JNLP - Security Auditing! - 1.5 language support in GNU Classpath, gcjx and the free runtimes - GNU Classpath/OSGi/J2ME/Library splitting and trimming - Harmony through interfacing. - Beyond JAPI: what is needed to "really finish" GNU Classpath Or, "Beyond Java" -- what we can do when we finish 1.5. Or more generally some kind of presentation about development metrics: bug rates, rates of change in japi/lines of code/tests, email volume, stuff like that. - Debugging, JDWP development efforts. - etc. Hope to see you in Brussels on February 25 and 26 2006, Arnaud, Dalibor, Mark, Michael and Tom --=20 Escape the Java Trap with GNU Classpath! http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/java-trap.html Join the community at http://planet.classpath.org/ --=-EMtUMD27qFFI+GFOzxqg Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBDeL07xVhZCJWr9QwRAtfDAKCukla8ou6hhYFrK+yYPAMLTTIpXACfeAdu w9MpBw1SDxdzaPKenK05jB0= =lhQV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-EMtUMD27qFFI+GFOzxqg-- -- gentoo-java@gentoo.org mailing list
