[Resending, as I think I may have used a different address] We are pleased to announce the Call for Participation in the FOSDEM 2024 Free Java DevRoom! This year FOSDEM will be between Saturday the 4th snd Sunday the 5thof February 2024 in Bruxelles, Belgium, with the usual events and meetings surrounding the main show on Friday, Saturday and Sunday on that weekend; please, refer to the FOSDEM website for the schedule of the whole event: https://fosdem.org/ The Free Java DevRoom has become unique in that it has attracted hackers from very different Free Software Java projects, giving the opportunity to bring together companies of various sizes, different project communities, mainstream core Java developers, alternative Java language implementations and runtimes, and everything that forms the Free Java Universe, everybody participating to share their knowledge in an atmosphere of cooperation and friendly competition. The Java Community is healthier than ever, and this is in part thanks to all of you who contributed over the years, so come and share your experiences at the Java Dev Room at FOSDEM! As always, check out our wiki for more details on the conference (please, allow some days for content to be update or added): https://wiki.debian.org/Java/DevJam/2024/Fosdem And join the Free Java DevoRoom mailing list [java-devroom at lists.fosdem.org]: https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/java-devroom *** IMPORTANT *** FOSDEM organisers have expressed the desire to record and stream everything, and like every year we will do our best to record the sessions by default.
