Jump to: navigation, search

The openSUSE Unconference Schedule is open. Please step up if you want to present or get together about a certain topic. We do have two tracks for the unconference. The rooms have capacity for around 30-50 people. Please fill in your topics and make the page well known over the place. We can also split rooms if we have interest in running more sessions simultaneously with smaller groups.

Note that the Unconference is planned with the intention of coming up with sessions at the conference, based on the interest of the people there (this is sometimes also called a Barcamp). We will put up a board to fill further slots at the conference, so it's not necessary to fill all slots now. The important thing is that we make good use of the time we have together and find time to discuss and collaborate on the topics we find important.

The 16:45 to 18:15 slot is reserved for Birds of a Feather sessions.
