[FOSDEM] [CfP] Free Tools and Editors devroom at FOSDEM 2020

[Geertjan Wielenga]

Dear friends and fans of free tools and editors everywhere!


Next year's FOSDEM (the free and open source developer's meeting in
Brussels, Europe) will for the second time feature a track dedicated to
developers and users of free tools and editors:


https://fosdem.org/2020/schedule/track/free_tools_and_editors/
<https://fosdem.org/2019/schedule/track/free_tools_and_editors/>


CALL FOR PARTICIPATION


We therefore invite developers and users of free tools and editors of all
kinds to participate in this track and present your projects, roadmaps,
demos, hacks, and codes. At FOSDEM, we hope to network all these projects
and improve collaboration, bring new ideas forward, and get more people
involved.


To suggest a talk, go to the following location:


https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM20
<https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM19>


...and follow the instructions (you need an account, but can use your
account from last year if you have one). You need to create an 'Event’;
make sure it's in the "Free Tools and Editors devroom”. Length per session
will be comparable to last year, see below:

You aren't limited to slide presentations, of course — in fact, we hope
you’ll focus on code. Be creative. However, FOSDEM is an open source
conference, therefore we ask you to stay very clear of marketing
presentations and focus on presenting something relevant to free/open tools
and editors. We like nitty-gritty technical stuff!


Topics discussed in this devroom can relate to any programming language,
and focus on:


* Libraries and frameworks

* Code generators

* Code editors

* Visual tools


IMPORTANT DATES


FOSDEM is February 1st and 2nd, 2020.

* Monday 16 December 2019: Schedule is finalized. We will announce the
