[FOSDEM] FOSDEM 2018 Package management devroom

[Benjamin Nickolls]

Package Management Devroom at FOSDEM ‘18

On Saturday 3rd February FOSDEM will host its first devroom dedicated to the subject of package management at [ULB](http://www.ulb.ac.be/). 

Topic

As this is the first time we’re hosting a package management devroom we want you to bring your own take. We’re open to exploring issues around distribution, verification, complexity, reproducibility, immutability, versioning, orphaning and sustaining package managers as an essential part of the open source ecosystem. Experiences, cautionary tales and ‘best-practice’ type talks are welcome. We are also considering a panel discussion. 

Submissions

Submissions require a small abstract and a short speaker description and must be submitted via the Pentabarf system no later than 1st of December 2017. 

The suggested duration for a timeslot to apply for is 25 minutes (20 min presentation + 5 mins questions). The schedule shall be finalized by 15 December 2016.
