Dyring fosdem 2017, the amateur-radio society of Belgium has an infobooth to promote amateur-radio at fosdem. (thanks again to the people at fosdem to allow us to do this).
I have had an idea in the back of my mind for some time to go a little bit further in this and look at the possiblity to set up a (small) devroom for amateur-radio related topics and open-source/free software and hardware.
There's already a `software defined radio` room. I think this subject belongs there. Please see:
https://fosdem.org/2017/schedule/track/software_defined_radio/
There are many ham radio topics that involve free software but not SDR There are also SDR topics that don't involve ham radio. However, maybe the ham radio group could communicate with the managers of the SDR dev-room to propose a new title for the room, e.g. "Ham and SDR" and a description of the room that covers both of these fields. We also have the Debian Hams[1] group in Debian and would welcome a copy of the CFP on our mailing list[2].
