DebConf 11, the annual Debian conference opened its doors today in Banja Luka, Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina. As with previous conferences streams of most sessions will be made available, allowing contributors who couldn’t attend the conference to still participate and send in questions and comments via specific IRC channels. The easiest way to do so is via the DebConf Watch website, which also contains several useful other tabs.
Yesterday the conference already commenced with the DebianDay, a conference day aimed at a wider, local audience. It featured talks on Understanding Debian
,Debian in Enterprise: A Google Case Study
and How to contribute and get involved
. It was a great success, not only bringing the Debian Community nearer to local contributors, but also by catching the interest of the wider society as has never happened before.
