<p>After 5 successful years we will host another design devroom at FOSDEM 2020!</p>
<p>The Open Source Design devroom will take place on <strong>Sunday, February 2nd</strong>, in the Solbosch campus of the Université Libre Brussels. The exact room will be confirmed in the coming months.</p>
<p>This will be a full day of talks about design work on free, libre and open source projects.</p>
<p><strong>We invite you to send in your submissions about design work on free, libre and open source projects.</strong></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Designers and developers working with designers (or on a design-minded project) are welcome to submit proposals.</p>
<p>Possible topics include:</p>
<ul><li>FOSS design tools</li><li>Unique challenges that open source brings</li><li>Design techniques and deliverables</li><li>Design/engineering collaboration approaches</li><li>User engagement and design research activities</li><li>Project case studies</li></ul>
