Hi,

I think it would be nice to have the event at places like Bruxelles, Paris, Barcelone, Berlin, London... and to see if we can talk with others open source foundation to make a common event like JB mention.

regards,

François

There have been several volunteers to participate in the conference
organizing committee so perhaps we should start by discussing where the
conference should be held.

Does anyone have any strong opinions or ideas?

The 2024 committee considered the following factors when choosing the
location:

1. Production cost (venue rental + services). 2024 was a reboot (Community
over Code is not positioned) so we are starting with sponsors from
scratch.  2025 is is a slightly better place since the 2024 conference made
the European version of C/C visible to some sponsors and participants.

2. Easy to get to by either train or airport (giving priority to train,
since we expect most attendees to come from EU and only a few from North
America).

3. A city/area where it is easy to walk to nearby restaurants/bars so that
attendees would run into each other after conference hours.

4. A nice city that people would be interested in visiting, and probably
never been to.

So if you have opinions and/or ideas please speak up.

Thanks,

Claude

p.s. We are still looking for a 2025 organizing committee chair.  Care to
volunteer?
