Debian developers gather in Finland
DEBCONF 5
Debian developers from around the world gathered in Finland to exchange ideas and have a good time at this year's Debian Developer's Conference.
The 5th annual Debian Developer’s Conference (DebConf) was a great success. Almost 300 Debian developers, maintainers, and enthusiasts gathered in Epsoo, Finland, at the Helsinki University of Technology (HUT)campus, to exchange ideas, share experiences, discuss important issues, and have a great time just being together. The core of the conference was the talks, both formal presentations and informal “Birds Of a Feather” chats on subjects of common interest. Topics included the future of Debian, cooperation with other Debian-based projects, tutorials for developers and maintainers, and presentations on Debian subpro-jects.
