FOSDEM: Thank you all!

Hi guys,
FOSDEM has been a great experience: thank you all for the opportunity, your
kind helpfulness and, moreover, your friendship.
I know that this mailing list should be used to talk about development
matters, but this was the easiest way to say that to you all in one shot.
Hope to have the chance to meet you again soon.
Regards,

Fabrizio

I have added a small page on the Wiki.
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Conferences/FOSDEM/2013
But I'm not sure about the stand staff. Can someone please add the other 
names?

Kind regards
Regina

I don't think this is worth a new post, but I've now added a 
"Post-conference update" paragraph to
https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/apache_openoffice_at_fosdem_2013
with links to slides and pictures.

   Andrea.

It would be great to get a blog on the outcome of this event...even a short
one!

Thank you for being there! Yes, indeed it was a nice event.

Devroom: we had some excellent sessions, audience varying (but, in 
general, with several new faces at each session), level suitable for 
FOSDEM, a good mix of topics and of usual/new presenters.
Slides from the sessions are published at
https://fosdem.org/2013/schedule/track/apache_openoffice/
(a few sessions were live demos/tutorials, without slides)

Stand: very good, (fortunately) far too small to host all of us, a lot 
of questions to answer, and a lot of users informed. Organizers had the 
nice idea to put our table next to MySQL, who had the nice idea to bring 
a large Oracle roll-up banner and put it between their table and ours, 
which added a few more questions... But we did have a roll-up too, 
flyers in four languages (courtesy of Sylvain, Guy, Mechtilde, 
Michael...), and other merchandising (stickers, orb pins, live demos).
Pictures (phone-quality) from devroom and stand are at
http://www.flickr.com/photos/89947020@N07/sets/72157632699639150/

Other talks: we had several discussion within the OpenOffice group and 
with other projects. You've seen already some topics popping up on the 
dev and api lists, and more will come in the next days.

Sure, but we'll have to book the restaurant well in advance!

We have such meetings in the past (before the fork). I take part in one,
but not in the second. You have to find a good place for that and it
seems that it must be on saturday, when all over communities have also
their meetings.

Michael

Yes, the FOSDEM was a great experience.
With our devroom and our stand we presented Apache OpenOffice quite well 
on this event.

May be next time, we need to organize a social AOO community event 
beside the general event - like a coming together in the evening - in 
order to get the possibility to introduce ourself in more detail to each 
other.

Best regards, Oliver.
