What does this have to do with OpenBSD? FOSDEM is a major conference about Free Software, arguably even the major conference in Europe. OpenBSD as a free operating system. OpenBSD developers have presented at FOSDEM in the past. I'm actually considering to propose a presentation myself, and i'm grateful for the heads-up. I consider FOSDEM a major opportunity for communication among free operating systems that rarely talk to each other. The *BSD conferences are no doubt useful too, but less suited to that particular purpose. While some of your questions may be interesting and some of your criticisms might have a point, discussing most of them would be off-topic on this list. A call for proposals for a major free software conference is clearly on topic here; nitpicking on the concept of the conference is not. Yours, Ingo -- Ingo Schwarze <schwa...@openbsd.org>
