possible FOSDEM shared non-linux devroom
by François Revol 21 Nov '09

21 Nov '09

Hi, as last year, I'm trying to organize a shared non-linux devroom at FOSDEM, to exchange on subjects like cross-platform drivers, porting woes... We didn't get it last year, but this year the FOSDEM team wants to organize a "distro miniconf" and force them to share devrooms instead of each having their own, to free rooms to other projects. I believe it should be possible either as part of the distro summit, or outside. If you want to participate in a non-linux devroom make sure you fill the form: http://fosdem.org/2010/call_for_developer_rooms quoting you would like to be part of a "non-linux" devroom, either as part of the distro ones or separately. If enough non-linux projects request a devroom maybe we'll get one... Here is what I filled, you should probably reuse the name: --- * devroom name: Alt-OS (Anything-but-Linux-disTro Operating System) * devroom description: Talks and workshops about alternative (non Linux based) opensource operating systems, in the purpose of sharing experience on application ports, common driver development and design differences. Possible talks include : - POSIX & *nix compatibility coverage of alternative OSes (example from Haiku...) - *nix app porting tricks (autoconf, ...) - OSSv4 port considerations - status of the NetSurf port to Haiku Possible workshops include : - porting a command line application to Haiku - porting a FreeBSD network driver to Haiku - native hello world GUI application on Haiku * devroom related URLs: http://www.haiku-os.org/ http://groups.google.com/group/rosetta-os?pli=1 http://opensound.com/ http://netsurf-browser.org/ * comments/remarks: It could either be done as part of the distro miniconf, or as a separate room. We would actually welcome discussions with distro projects too, on subjects like package management for example. Possible projects interested in joining in: RTEMS http://www.rtems.com/ Minix http://www.minix3.org/ AROS http://aros.org/ ReactOS http://www.reactos.org/fr/index.html Syllable http://web.syllable.org/pages/index.html Other participants in the Rosetta OS (discussion group about non-linux FOSS OSes) http://groups.google.com/group/rosetta-os?pli=1 --- I'd suggest you also fill the form to show the orga how much demand there is for it. We'll get an answer by 2009-11-29. You can also ask for a booth: http://fosdem.org/2010/call_for_stands I just sent the Haiku request. The general call for participation: http://fosdem.org/2010/call_for_participation Note the deadline is november 22nd, so be quick! François.
