Hi all,

Deadlines for FOSDEM are approaching fast (i.e., this Thursday or
Friday). There are a few devrooms where a buildroot presentation would fit:

- Community Development and Marketing: 5, 15 or 30 minute presentation about the community process of buildroot.

- Cross-distro devroom: buildroot as a distro, 30 or 60 minutes.

- Testing and Automation devroom: the buildroot autobuilder concept in 10 or 30 minutes.

Any takers?

Regards,
Arnout

Does it really fit in the "Cross-distro devroom" ? I guess by "Cross" they don't mean "cross-compilation", but rather exchanges between distributions such as Gentoo, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc. Does Buildroot really fit in the middle of those discussions? I believe we have quite different use cases, needs, requirements, etc.

But in any case, I'm definitely interested in proposing a talk related to Buildroot. Let's sync on how's going to propose what.

isn't there a specific embedded track ?

buildroot would probably better fit in there, no ?

Dear Jeremy Rosen,

There is indeed an embedded track. I think that Arnout tries to submit talks in other tracks, to get Buildroot known a bit beyond the traditional crowd that goes to the embedded track. You know, world domination plans :-)

Best regards,

Thomas

Actually, it's just because I wouldn't know what to say at the embedded
track. But come to think of it, Thomas's buildroot-real-project presentation hasn't been at FOSDEM yet, so that would be an ideal candidate for the embedded track. Right, Thomas?

Regards,
Arnout

Indeed, that could be. Slides are ready, except a little bit of rework, so that wouldn't be too difficult to propose.

Thomas
