The Open Source Design community will be organising a devroom at FOSDEM 2020. The CfP is available at https://opensourcedesign.net/events/2020/02/02/opensourcedesign-fosdem-2020 And also below: Call for Participation: Open Source Design Devroom at FOSDEM 2020 FOSDEM is the Free and Open source Software Developers’ European Meeting, a free and non-commercial two-day weekend event that offers *all* open source contributors a place to meet, share ideas, learn and collaborate. After 5 successful years we will host another design devroom at FOSDEM 2020! The Open Source Design devroom will take place on *Sunday, February 2nd*, in the Solbosch campus of the Université Libre Brussels. The exact room will be confirmed in the coming months. This will be a full day of talks about design work on free, libre and open source projects. *We invite you to send in your submissions about design work on free, libre and open source projects.* We mean ‘design’ in the broadest sense: user research, interface and interaction design, information architecture, visual design, typography, illustration, iconography, spatial, accessibility (and anything you can think of) – all in the context of open source projects, which we believe introduces unique challenges. Designers and developers working with designers (or on a design-minded project) are welcome to submit proposals. Possible topics include: - FOSS design tools - Unique challenges that open source brings - Design techniques and deliverables - Design/engineering collaboration approaches - User engagement and design research activities - Project case studies If you’re interested in seeing all previous talks, have a look at the schedule, and videos for 2019 ( https://archive.fosdem.org/2019/schedule/track/open_source_design/) and 2018 (https://archive.fosdem.org/2018/schedule/track/open_source_design/).
