Hi all, We are pleased to announce that the Confidential Computing devroom will return to FOSDEM 2026. The devroom will take place on Sunday, February 1, 2026 (9:00-13:00) in Brussels, Belgium. We are now accepting talk proposals through the FOSDEM Pretalx system <https://pretalx.fosdem.org/fosdem-2026/>. The full CfP can be found here: https://falder.org/fosdem26-cfp. This will be the seventh edition of the devroom, continuing our focus on the open-source ecosystem around hardware-based Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), also known as Confidential Computing. We invite submissions addressing any aspect of free and open-source confidential computing, including but not limited to: - Programming frameworks and operating system support for TEEs - Open-source attestation and deployment frameworks - Cloud-native confidential computing use cases - Language and compiler support for trusted hardware - TEE-specific attacks, mitigations, and reverse engineering - Open enclave architectures (RISC-V, GPUs, accelerators, etc.) - Visions and discussions on future trusted hardware This year, attestation-related topics are again welcome in our devroom. Key dates (Brussels time): - Submission deadline: December 1, 2025 - Notification of acceptance: December 15, 2025 - Devroom date: February 1, 2026 (Sunday, 9:00-13:00) Talk slots are generally 20-40 minutes including Q&A, but shorter presentations (around 10 minutes) for focused ideas or discussion points are also welcome. Looking forward to FOSDEM! Ilaria, on behalf of the Confidential Computing Devroom organizers
