Once again, FOSDEM is pleased to hold a key signing party organised by volunteers. You can check how to participate here.

Last year, an LPI exam has been organised in a hurry. This year, we have asked LPI to organise exams, and there will be at least 1 exam, maybe 2. You must first register on LPI website to obtain an LPI ID needed to pass the exam. Check this on the LPI website.

The rules for the contest are :
  • images have to be submitted in png/jpg format
  • you can't include picture/drawing representing person (like RMS, Torvalds, ...)
  • you must be present at FOSDEM to be "a winner". If the one with the higher votes rank is not present, the prize will be for the second if present at FOSDEM, otherwise ... So, no more SVG pictures. You can read all of this here

    FOSDEM is a free (as a free beer) event ... but we need money to do it ! So we are asking people to make donations so that FOSDEM can happen. But we want to provide some "return" to our donators. Given that, if you donate this, you'll get that :
  • 25 euros: t-shirt
  • 50 euros: t-shirt + pocket guide + entrance to buffet if available
  • 100 euros: t-shirt + O'Reilly book + entrance to buffet if available + 50% reduction on a Peplink product
  • 150 euros: tshirt + O'Reilly book + participation in the draw to win 5 books of your choice from O'Reilly (2 winners of 5 books) + entrance to buffet if available.

    Check here for more information on how to do it !
