<h1>Ready for FOSDEM 2023?</h1>
|
||
|
||
<p>FOSDEM 2023 is taking place in Brussels the first weekend of
|
||
February. The FSFE team will be participating at the main Free
|
||
Software convention in Europe with a booth and giving some keynotes.
|
||
Are you going to be there? Come to our booth and do not miss our
|
||
talks!</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>After two years without the chance to meet in person and spend time
|
||
talking with other Free Software friends – and newcomers – around our
|
||
booth, we are almost there: FOSDEM is back as an “in situ” event.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>FOSDEM brings together thousands of Free Software enthusiasts for
|
||
one weekend in Brussels to discuss current topics and developments in
|
||
the Free Software world. This year we are back at the Université Libre
|
||
de Bruxelles with <a href="https://share.fsfe.org/s/8kZaPS5gifd37KQ">our booth and several talks</a> to encourage and raise
|
||
awareness on wider issues that impact our movement. Networking is
|
||
equally important. We have prepared social gatherings to get to know
|
||
each other a bit better during the evenings in some informal venues.</p>

long but worthwhile first day with an 'Ada & Zangeman' book reading and a meetup to get to know the members

<h2>FSFE FOSDEM Public Money, Public Code!, REUSE - Sunday 5 February </h2>
|
||
<p>Our second day will start with a talk in the morning about our campaign
|
||
‘Public Money? Public Code!’, in which we will provide a policy brief
|
||
of the state of play of Free Software in the European Union. If you are
|
||
interested in this topic, you should attend another of our talks about
|
||
this issue to learn how to effectively push for Free Software all over
|
||
Europe. That one will take place in the afternoon under the title ‘If
|
||
it’s public money, make it public code!’.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Also in the afternoon you can learn about REUSE, our tool to communicate licensing and copyright
|
||
information, which makes developing, using,and re-using Free Software
|
||
easier.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Of course, we have more activities, campaigns and topics that
|
||
our team can discuss with you. So stop at our booth! We will be willing
|
||
to answer your questions and show you some of the initiatives that we
|
||
have going on.
