WHAT IS FOSDEMx?

FOSDEMx is a small scale spin-off of FOSDEM, combining a workshop track geared towards students and anyone interested in the topic, with a main track for a broader audience.

FOSDEMx 1, will take place on Tuesday the 13th of November 2018 at the ULB La Plaine campus. The second edition will focus on all things security.

All tracks are free of charge. Because seating is limited, we ask that you sign up for any workshop you want to follow. If you're only coming for the main track, no registration is necessary.

FOSDEMx VERSUS FOSDEM

FOSDEM is about meeting the developers, while FOSDEMx is about using the tools and being an introduction to the free and open source world.
