Hello,

I am happy to announce that Genode will participate in FOSDEM 2012 next February.

Thanks a lot to Jakub Jermar of the HelenOS project for having invited us to a devroom specifically allocated for microkernel-based and multi-server operating systems such as ours.

Please feel hearty invited to join us at FOSDEM and to discuss the planning of the event at the mailing list mentioned in Jakub's official announcement (see below).

Cheers Norman

The multiserver, microkernel-based operating systems are going to have a dedicated devroom at FOSDEM [0] 2012. The event will take place in Brussels during the weekend of February 4 and 5, 2012.

The projects that originally declared interest in the devroom are:

GNU Hurd[1] MINIX 3[2] HelenOS[3] Genode[4]

If we can get support in the form of devroom content of other related projects, that would make the whole devroom even more worthwile.

The reason of having a devroom for interested multiserver and microkernel projects is basically to increase awareness of each other, socialize, talk about the technical problems that our projects have in common and perhaps code together. Or anything else that we can do together.

The planning for the devroom is still taking off, but I've already created a mailing list[5]. You are encouraged to subscribe to this mailing list if you would like to participate in the devroom or just come by and say hello to us at FOSDEM 2012. I will send further instructions to that list once the devroom is ready to accept offers of content (e.g. sessions, talks, demos etc.).
