I'll be in the #fosdem translations dev room this afternoon, speaking about something completely unrelated to my usual topics.
Don't expect a ready to use project though, it's more about sharing a story of creative problem solving. :blobcatartist:

Yes the #FOSDEM app was absolutely great to find my path through all the devrooms, lectures and BOFs. This largest #opensource event was just amazing!

While listening to discussions about federated systems and protocols at #fosdem (like the one I’m currently using): I realized something.
It recently resonated with me through some past and ongoing projects: when people are afraid of federation, they call it “balkanization” or “fragmentation.”
Sorry for the wording @…

I believe 20/ 30 min at #Fosdem is the perfect duration for talks. 50 min gives you a lot of time to fill it with boring stuff.

Pro tips for #FOSDEM first-timers!
1. Don't make too many plans! First time can be overwhelming, so go with the flow!
2. Pick maybe a couple talks you want to attend, and try to get into that room at latest before the preceding talk, because the most popular talks are near-impossible to get in to. Do this only for the talks where you wish to actively contribute (e.g. ask questions) o…

11. Public transportation stops a little after midnight. If you want to stay up late (e.g. at party at Cafe Delirium on Friday), then get a hotel in a walking distance from there.
12. Weather is usually cool-ish and wet (~5-10 °C). Bring a travel umbrella.
If you have stickers, bring them!
If you know a community there, hang out with them.
13. Have fun! #FOSDEM is about
