#1 Post by donald »

DebConf23 starts today in Kochi On Sun 10 September 2023

DebConf23, the 24th annual Debian Developer Conference, is taking place in Kochi, India from September 10th to 17th, 2023.

Debian contributors from all over the world have come together at Infopark, Kochi to participate and work in a conference exclusively run by volunteers.

Today the main conference starts with over 373 expected attendants and 92 scheduled activities, including 45-minute and 20-minute talks, Bird of a Feather ("BoF") team meetings, workshops, a job fair, as well as a variety of other events.

The full schedule is updated each day, including activities planned ad-hoc by attendees over the course of the conference.

If you would like to engage remotely, you can follow the video streams available from the DebConf23 website for the events happening in the three talk rooms: Anamudi, Kuthiran and Ponmudi. Or you can join the conversations happening inside the talk rooms via the OFTC IRC network in the #debconf-anamudi, #debconf-kuthiran, and the #debconf-ponmudi channels. Please also join us in the #debconf channel for common discussions related to DebConf.

You can also follow the live coverage of news about DebConf23 provided by our micronews service or the @debian profile on your favorite social network.

DebConf is committed to a safe and welcoming environment for all participants. Please see our Code of Conduct page on the DebConf23 website for more information on this.

Debian thanks the commitment of numerous sponsors to support DebConf23, particularly our Platinum Sponsors: Infomaniak, Proxmox and Siemens.

Sorry for not posting on the spot. Lots of moving parts going on. If you are following along, the Debian Micronews Service and the Conference Schedule are much faster to follow.
