= Description =
This calendar is an overview to events related to
Free/Libre and Open Source Software in Europe
(and then some - eg Canada and USA, for coordination).
The focus is on events which last at least one day and
which are mostly open to the public at a low cost.
The calendar also lists all those deadlines, too.
The URL listed with the deadline should point you
directly at the page of the call for papers.
There are not only conferences, but also for meetings
of specialized groups, eg for Gnome, KDE, mysql etc.
I am considering to add events on
BarCamps, CAcert certifications, as well as
Bug Squashing Parties (BSPs) and
Key Signing Parties (KSPs).
Please send feedback and hints about more events!
