LPI exams at FOSDEM 2012
by Philip Paeps 04 Jan '12

04 Jan '12

As in previous years, there will again be an opportunity to take various LPI exams at FOSDEM 2012. The location and the schedule are the same as previous years. Below is a recap and a list of this year's prices. Interested attendees should sign up at http://lpievent.lpice.eu/. FOSDEM should appear there in the short order. List of exams and prices: LPIC-1 101, 102 80,- EUR LPIC-2 201, 202 80,- EUR LPIC-3 301 100,- EUR LPIC-3 302, 303, 304 80,- EUR Exam session schedule: Saturday 2012-02-04 LPI Exam 1 14:00-15:45 LPI Exam 2 16:00-17:45 Sunday 2012-02-05 LPI Exam 3 10:30-12:15 LPI Exam 4 13:00-14:45 LPI Exam 5 15:00-16:45 Since the number of slots is probably limited, it's probably a good idea to sign up sooner rather than later. I'm hopeful that this information will also find its way to the fosdem.org website in due course. Best. - Philip -- Philip Paeps Senior Reality Engineer Ministry of Information

Keysigning: please submit your keys
by Philip Paeps 04 Jan '12

04 Jan '12

It's that time of the year again. I have updated the keysigning bits and pieces to accept keys for next year's keysigning event. Same procedure as last year: if you intend to participate in the keysigning event, please submit the keys you'd like to have signed to ksp.fosdem.org. If you're using GnuPG, that can be easily accomplished with: % gpg --keyserver ksp.fosdem.org --send-key <your-keyid> Please check that your key was correctly submitted by pointing a webbrowser at http://ksp.fosdem.org/. If your key is missing after you submitted it, send me an email and I'll try to find out what's up. Key submissions close Monday before FOSDEM to give me some time to try to remember how I generated the lists again. Get submitting! - Philip -- Philip Paeps Senior Reality Engineer Ministry of Information

Openstreetmap.org
by Jo 23 Dec '11

23 Dec '11

Hi, What would be needed to get a table to present Openstreetmap.org on FOSDEM2012? I know I'm late in the game. Sorry about that. I could also give a presentation about the use of JOSM as an editor to enter geographical data, like buildings, house numbers, bus lines and the like, but I suppose all the slots for presentations are already filled up. I don't feel like giving a lightning talk though. 15 minutes is not enough time to do justice to the project's scope and besides I think most geeks will already know about it anyway. Jo (Polyglot)
