Hello all, FOSDEM 2014 will take place on 1–2 February, 2014, in Brussels, Belgium. Just like in the last years, there will be both a BSD booth and a developer's room (on Saturday). The topics of the devroom include all BSD operating systems. Every talk is welcome, from internal hacker discussion to real-world examples and presentations about new and shiny features. The default duration for talks will be 45 minutes including discussion. Feel free to ask if you want to have a longer or a shorter slot. If you already submitted a talk last time, please note that the procedure is slightly different. To submit your proposal, visit https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM14/ and follow the instructions to create an account and an “event”. Please select “BSD devroom” as the track. (Click on “Show all” in the top right corner to display the full form.) Please include the following information in your submission: * The title and subtitle of your talk (please be descriptive, as titles will be listed with ~500 from other projects) * A short abstract of one paragraph * A longer description if you wish to do so * Links to related websites/blogs etc. The deadline for submissions is December 20, 2013. The talk committee, consisting of Daniel Seuffert, Marius Nünnerich and Benny Siegert, will consider the proposals. If yours has been accepted, you will be informed by e-mail before the end of the year. Best regards, Benny Siegert (for the BSD devroom organizers)
