DebConf is the Debian Project's developer conference. In addition to a
full schedule of technical, social and policy talks, DebConf provides
an opportunity for developers, contributors and other interested
people to meet in person and work together more closely. It has taken
place annually since 2000 in locations as varied as Canada, Finland
and Mexico.
Previous Debian Conferences have featured speakers from around the world. They have also been extremely beneficial for developing key Debian software components, including the new Debian Installer, and for improving Debian's internationalization.
If you are interested in sponsoring DebConf10, please don't hesitate to contact us.
DebConf10 will be held in New York City at Columbia University August 1-7, 2010!
DebConf9 took place from July 24th until July 30th 2009 in Cáceres, Extremadura, Spain. Visit the DebConf9 website for more information!
Development teams like debian-installer and debian-edu also have the possibility of meeting beforehand for undisturbed collaborative work. However, note that only the basic necessities like bed and network connection will be provided at that time. Interested teams should contact the organizers upfront to make special arrangements. DebCamp will take place from July 16th until July 23rd 2009.
Meanwhile, decision-makers who are interested in discovering the benefits of Free Software and Debian users are invited to attend DebConf Open Day. DebConf Open Day is an open house event that will kick-off Debconf with presentations of general interest.
