Hi all again!
We went to OpenExpo09 Bern with Swisslinux and handled a quarter-booth for
Debian, were we sold the Debian.ch T-shirts and stickers.
We reached 525.-
It seems pretty good to me, but I don't know other "scores" ;)
Globally, the event was good. Having evil proprietary vendors paying to get us
free drinks, free booths, free beer, free access, free conferences, … is a good
thing to me. Having those both conferences mixed is at least an interesting
thing.
We met people from Ubuntu-CH, KDE and Qt Software, Gentoo, Xen, Fedora,
Openwireless.ch and many others I can't remember of. The Social Event in the
evening with The Free Beer (with Free as in freedom _and_ Free as in free
beer ;) ) was really cool, with some fun lightning talks.
Late in the evening, we decided to organise a meeting on Wednesday with the
present communities. We invited everybody to a discussion about the
convergences of the various communities. We wanted to understand where we all
could join forces in the free software domain in Switzerland.
Two focuses: events/calendar and politics. The rest is not particular to
Switzerland. What came out from the discussion:
* Calendar: /ch/open actually handles its OSS Roadmap. It doesn't work very
well for now. They are preparing opensource.ch which will have a new
calendar. The idea is to have all FLOSS-related events on that calendar.
* Politics: The FSFE-CH private mailing-list is actually used for this and
should continue to.
The motto was: Join forces !
Have a good night all! Best regards,
OdyX
