Autumn

Announcing Linux Autumn 2018

If you have ever wondered, like I have, whether there will be an autumn (the Linux Autumn) this year then the answer is: yes.

Linux Autumn is an annual meeting of Free Software and Linux enthusiast from Poland organized since 2003 which means this year it will be its 16th time. This year it will be organized in Ustroń in the southern Poland from 9 to 11 November. The town is the same as the last year but in a different hotel.

As the place is located near the Czech and Slovak border we would like to invite more people, both speakers and attendees, from other countries. We are aware of strong presence of Fedora contributors in Brno and other nearby cities just across the border.

This conference has always been mostly Polish (in terms of the language) but there was always at least one foreign speaker who gave a talk in English. It has always been a chicken and egg problem: there are not many English talks because there are not many foreign attendees; on the other hand there are not many foreign attendees because there are not many English talks. I think we all will be happy to change this. We have already one foreign speaker confirmed, others are in progress.

Currently the registration is open but the organizers are still accepting talk proposals, the CfP deadline has been extended to 19 October. Please hurry with your talk proposal!

If you don’t know what is Linux Autumn about please see my articles about the event in 2017 and in 2016 or see the organizers’ website.
