We’re excited to announce the Call for Participation for the Free Java devroom for FOSDEM 2027!
The Free Java devroom has become unique in that it has attracted hackers from many different Free Software Java projects. It provides an opportunity to bring everything that forms the Free Java Universe together, including companies of various sizes, different project communities, mainstream core Java developers, and alternative Java language implementations and runtimes. It allows all participants 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 Free Java devroom at FOSDEM!
