FOSDEM 2016 - take action by 4th of December 2015

[Roman Shaposhnik]

As most of you probably know FOSDEM 2016 (the biggest,
100% free open source developer conference) is right
around the corner:
   https://fosdem.org/2016/

We hope to have an ASF booth and we would love to see as
many ASF projects as possible present at various tracks
(AKA Developer rooms):
   https://fosdem.org/2016/schedule/#devrooms

This year, for the first time, we are running a dedicated
Big Data and HPC Developer Room and given how much of that
open source development is done at ASF it would be great
to have folks submit talks to:
   https://hpc-bigdata-fosdem16.github.io

While the CFPs for different Developer Rooms follow slightly
different schedules, but if you submit by the end of this week
you should be fine.

Finally if you don't want to fish for CFP submission URL,
here it is:
   https://fosdem.org/submit

If you have any questions -- please email me *directly* and
hope to see as many of you as possible in two months!

Thanks,
Roman.

Hi All

Just to let you know that I've volunteered to help out on the Apache booth at FOSDEM so will be there. I think that Pierre, Heidi and Eric have mentioned that they are planning to come too (so we can have a mini meetup).

I'm planning to bring a laptop and have a demo version of OFBiz running to show people. I'm not sure if we can get some OFBiz marketing material (eg stickers, badges etc) to give away… (so any ideas and possible funding for this is very welcome !)

If anyone wants to submit a talk / presentation or discussion then please feel free.

Thanks
Sharan
