T-DOSE 2026 in audio and video

2026-06-16T00:00:00Z

We are looking back at a really nice anniversary conference. We hope you all had a great time at T-DOSE this year. We are still editing the T-DOSE presentation videos, which will take some time. However, you can already look and listen back to what happened at T-DOSE this year!

Apart from our own recordings, there are also other sources available from the event, including the podcasts from Hacker Public Radio and the Angry Nerds.

Several speakers have already uploaded their presentation slides themselves. These are now accessible from the talk information pages that are linked from the schedule.

If you gave a presentation yourself, then you can still add your slides to your presentation in Pretalx.

Full Live Streams

The full, unedited, recordings of the entire tracks are available on Youtube:

Hacker Public Radio at T-DOSE

Ken Fallon has been publishing a community podcast for over 20 years. He also did many interviews (12) during the event. All of these can be listened back from the HPR website, featuring photos of all people in the interviews (HPR 4663).

And in case you missed it, also check out the longer interview that our T-DOSE chairman did for Hacker Public Radio a few weeks before the event (HPR 4641).

Angry Nerds Podcast Specials

The Angry Nerds also hosted multiple podcasts, broadcasted live from T-DOSE during the event. These are mainly in Dutch.

Travelling by train?

2026-06-04T00:00:00Z

A word of caution for those travelling to T-DOSE by train. While our wonderful venue is located within walking distance from the Geldrop railway station, ProRail has chosen this week to do some railway maintenance in the area.

For this reason, there will be no railway service to both Eindhoven CS and Geldrop train station during the upcoming T-DOSE weekend. The NS will operate a replacement bus service between both stations, as well as from Boxtel, Helmond and Maarheeze - depending on which direction you are travelling from.

Social Event

2026-06-01T00:00:00Z

The main part of any conference is of course the social aspect! A well established T-DOSE tradition is to have a dinner and a couple of drinks with speakers, volunteers and visitors to end the first conference day. And our twentieth anniversary will honour this tradition. Our social event will start at 5pm on Saturday evening. This is a great way to interact informally with all our speakers and whoever else you meet at T-DOSE. Discuss your experiences of the day and all the presentation that are still coming on the next day. Everybody is welcome.

Register now to be a part of this!

If you are interested in a nice dinner with like-minded people, then please let us know via email to socialevent @ t-dose.org. Because we need to book in advance, there will only be a very limited amount of extra slots available for sale on the day itself. Yes, really limited, if not fully booked in pre-registration. So, register early to guarantee your place at the table. Do not wait or you might get disappointed.

Social event tickets cost 35 euro. You can pay during the event itself, at the T-DOSE info stand on Saturday. The social event is only open to people who have registered and paid before this event starts. Attendees of the social event will gather in the main hall of the T-DOSE event location. Don't be late, the doors will close at 5pm for the start of the social event. The entrance fee must be paid before that time at the T-DOSE info stand. If you have special dietary constraints, such as vegetarian, please specify this in your email.

Get in the mood for T-DOSE

2026-05-31T00:00:00Z

Twenty years ago was the very first Technical Dutch Open Source Event (T-DOSE) at the Technical University in Eindhoven. Since then, the T-DOSE conference has become an annual recurrence that brings together people interested in open source software and hardware from the entire country and beyond - both developers and users.

A lot of previous presentations have been recorded and are available online. Just like the conference itself, access to these recordings is completely free. Check out our own Youtube channel, or find older editions on the CityTV channel.

Since 2024, it is also possible to view all presentations free of Big Tech on our PeerTube channel: tube.t-dose.org. This years recordings will also be published there after the event. And like last year, we live-stream some presentations for those who cannot attend in person.

Get in the mood for the T-DOSE weekend now, by re-watching previous conference editions online!

Full Schedule Announced

2026-05-30T00:00:00Z

The full conference schedule for the 20-year anniversary T-DOSE edition on 6 and 7 June 2026 has now been published. We are happy to announce that we have found many interesting speakers willing to present for this conference edition.

There will be two tracks on both Saturday and Sunday, spanning a wide range of technical and community concepts. Have a look and join in to learn about many interesting open source topics.

Looking forward to seeing you all at the Weeffabriek on 6 and 7 June!

Celebrating 20 years of T-DOSE

2026-01-29T00:00:00Z

This year's edition of T-DOSE, which takes place on June 6^th and 7^th at the Weeffabriek in Geldrop, marks the 20 year anniversary of our event.

In 2006, the first edition of T-DOSE was held at the Eindhoven University of Technology. Our founders, Jeroen Baten and Jean-Paul Saman, wanted to create an Open Source event in the Dutch Brainport region, which is one of Europe's strongest technological hotspots. And although we've had some ups and downs, 20 years later, we're still going, still connecting the Open Source community, not only within the Netherlands but also beyond the borders.

So, we hope to welcome you at the Weeffabriek in June, for a great weekend filled with Open Source goodness, and of course to celebrate 20 years of T-DOSE with us!

Call for Participation

2026-01-28T00:00:00Z

T-DOSE, the Technical Dutch Open Source Event, is a freely accessible conference, organised in the Eindhoven region since 2006. The event consists of a central track with presentations and a bazaar where Open Source projects can present themselves. This year, which marks 20 years since the first edition, T-DOSE will be held on 6 and 7 June at the Weeffabriek in Geldrop.

The T-DOSE organisation calls for proposals for talks. All presentations related to open source, open standards, open data or open hardware are welcome. Possible subjects for talks include specific software development projects, but also practical application of open source in schools/institutions or industry, open standards, community management, programming languages, open internet applications, legal aspects, historic developments, hackerspaces, etc. We also have some capacity for related workshops.

At the same time, we open registrations for participation in the bazaar, where stands will be available to open source projects and other related groups to present themselves to the public. The stands will be placed in a central information market area.

The deadline for presentation abstracts, workshops and project stand requests is 31 March 2026. Submit your registration via our registration page and make sure to select the appropriate track.

T-DOSE is completely organised by volunteers. More information about the foundation and the core team, as well as sponsoring opportunities can also be found on our website. For any questions regarding submissions, please use the contact form.

2025-06-02T00:00:00Z

T-DOSE 2025 has come and gone. We're looking back on a great weekend with many interesting presentations. It was great to see a lot of new faces and meet new like-minded people, as well as catch up with old friends and many frequent visitors from previous editions. Many thanks to everyone who helped make this event a success, including all speakers, project stand representatives, all volunteers, the staff at the Weeffabriek and, of course, everybody who participated!

Note that it is already possible to view back yesterday's live stream with all presentations in the Kleine Spoel. These will be edited and published individually later. A number of presenters have already uploaded their slides as well. You can find these from the talk descriptions - which are linked from the schedule overview.

As mentioned during the closing talk, T-DOSE will definitely be back next year. It will be 20 years since the first edition in 2006 at Eindhoven University of Technology. Next year, we will once again be at the Weeffabriek in Geldrop. Mark your calendars for 6 and 7 June 2026 — T-DOSE weekend! Hope to see you all again there and bring your friends.

Live streaming

2025-06-01T00:00:00Z

We are now live-streaming all presentations in the Kleine Spoel on our channel, youtube.com/@T-DoseEvent. Not yet with an open-source distribution network, but we are working on that as well. So, for those who cannot join in person, this is your second-best option. Recordings will be made available after the conference as well.

At lunch time, there will be a live-streaming Angry Nerds from the Grote Spoel as well via their own channels.

Ready for T-DOSE

2025-05-30T00:00:00Z

We're all ready for the next edition of our free, annual conference: the Technical Dutch Open Source Event (T-DOSE) is happening this weekend at the Weeffabriek. As always, there is no entrance fee and advance registration is not required: just walk in whenever you feel like. The keynote is highly recommended though, so best join early.

We have a full conference schedule with parallel tracks, starting at 10:00 on both Saterday and Sunday. Check out the quick overview of all speakers. We also have a very nice line-up of project stands, who will be presenting in the Grote Spoel room.

On Saturday evening, we will be hosting our famous social event with dinner. Unfortunately, this is now fully booked and we don't have extra seats available. On Sunday, there will also be a live podcast session by the Angry Nerds at lunch time: do join in and see them live.

The conference venue is on walking distance from the Geldrop train station; bicycle parking is available right in front of the building and plenty free car parking is nearby. Our venue page has the full details, and also more practical information (full address, ATM, nearby accommodation..). The Weeffabriek building is named for the weaving mill located there, that is still in operation in the museum part of the building, open 13:00-17:00 on both days.

To keep T-DOSE completely free (free as in beer) for all visitors, we rely on our sponsors and on donations from visitors. Donations can be made at the infodesk during the event or directly online. You should of course visit the infodesk in the Grote Spoel anyway, to buy your unique T-DOSE t-shirt. There are still plenty shirts from last year as well; as these arrived a bit late. We also sell T-DOSE mugs with this year's flashy logo. These mugs can be refilled with coffee and tea at no additional cost during the entire event.

See you tomorrow!

Call for help - A note from our chairman

2024-05-28T00:00:00Z

I have been part of the core team of T-DOSE for a good few years now, and have even been bumped up to chairman of the T-DOSE foundation. And I have to say that I really like putting time and effort into keeping our event alive and helping it grow over the years. The enthusiasm of the core team is infectious, and we have gotten very experienced in organising this event.

However, in the years since COVID-19 we have lost a few core organisers, and this is affecting the workload of the remaining team. Some tasks are harder to get done, and I fear future editions of T-DOSE may suffer from that. We are particularly short-handed in the area of money-related tasks, such as fund raising and managing the foundation's finances.

So, if you think that organising an open source conference is worth a few evenings a month of your time, please let us know. We are particularly looking for a new treasurer for our foundation and for someone who is good at finding and communicating with prospective sponsors, but extra hands in other areas are also very welcome.

If you want to help, but feel that you lack the time to help us organise T-DOSE throughout the year, or prefer a more hands-on role during the event, we are also looking to increase our pool of volunteers for the actual weekend. So don't hesitate to let us know if you're available!

Join us for a chance to get that warm feeling of seeing your efforts lead to yet another great event!

Hope to see you soon,

Peter van Ginneken
Chairman of the T-DOSE foundation

We have already started planning again for next year. There will be a T-DOSE 2024 and we hope to announce the date in a couple of weeks.

T-DOSE, the Technical Dutch Open Source Event, is a freely accessible Open Source conference, organised in the Eindhoven region since 2006. The event consists of a central tracks with presentations and a bazaar where Open Source projects can present themselves. In 2023, T-DOSE will be held on the 22^nd and 23^rd of April at our new location, Weeffabriek, in Geldrop.

The T-DOSE organisation calls for proposals for talks. All open source related presentations are welcome. Possible subjects for talks include specific software development projects, but also practical application of open source in schools/institutions or industry, open standards, community management, programming languages, open internet applications, legal aspects, historic developments, hackerspaces, etc.

At the same time, we open registrations for participation in the bazaar, where stands will be available to open source projects and other related groups to present themselves to the public. Stands will be placed in a central information market area.

The deadline for both presentation abstracts and project stand requests is 3 April 2023. Submit your registration via the following links:

T-DOSE on 22 & 23 April 2023

2022-09-13T00:00:00Z

T-DOSE will be returning in 2023, as a two-day event, on the 22^nd and 23^rd of April.

T-DOSE 2023 will be held at our new location: the Weeffabriek in Geldrop (near Eindhoven). This venue is less than a 15 minute walk from the Geldrop railway station. There is also plenty of parking space in the area. See the venue page for details.

We hope to greet a lot of familiar and new faces.

Moving our IRC presence

2021-05-26T00:00:00Z

The T-DOSE IRC channel has been moved to the Libera.Chat network.

You can join us on the #t-dose channel there. This is the only official T-DOSE IRC channel now.

T-DOSE postponed

2020-09-14T00:00:00Z

In the light of the recent upsurge of COVID-19 cases in both the Netherlands and the rest of the world, we have concluded that an event that brings together people from many different places is not a very good idea right now. Because of this, we have decided to postpone T-DOSE a second time.

~~We are now looking at dates in April/May 2021.~~ We hope very much that conditions will improve soon to such an extent that letting T-DOSE take place is possible in a safe and healthy way.

Update: Spring 2021 is not an option either. T-DOSE will happen again, we just do not know when yet.

T-DOSE 2020 postponed

2020-03-21T00:00:00Z

It is with great regret that we have to announce that T-DOSE 2020 cannot take place on the planned dates. While as of yet the measures taken with regard to the Corona virus extend only until April 6th, it seems unlikely that everything will go back to normal at that time. Because of this, we have made the decision to postpone the event.

The good news is that we have been able to secure a new date at our venue. T-DOSE 2020 will now take place on October 24th and 25th of this year. The Call for Papers and Projects has been extended until September 15th.

We hope to see you all this autumn!

Corona virus

2020-03-12T00:00:00Z

We are monitoring the developments of the Corona virus (COVID-19) and the proposed mitigations. We will adhere to the recommendations of the National Dutch Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM). Today, the Dutch government advised the nation-wide cancellation of events with over one hundred participants. However, there is currently no advice beyond 1 April 2020.

We continue to prepare for the T-DOSE 2020 conference, and hope that the event can proceed as planned. The organising team is working hard to arrange everything. We are still looking for additional speakers and open source projects. Please fill in the the submission form if you wish to give a presentation.

Later this month, we will give an extra update on the developments regarding COVID-19 and the consequences for T-DOSE 2020.

T-DOSE on 25 & 26 April 2020

We're excited to announce that the 2020 edition of T-DOSE will be a two-day event again! It will take place on the ~~25th and 26th of April~~ at Hofdael in Geldrop.

Update: The event has been re-scheduled to 24 and 25 October 2020.

We think Hofdael is a great new venue for T-DOSE. Hofdael is located in the center of Geldrop, a town near Eindhoven. It is less than a 15 minute walk from the railway station. There is also plenty of parking space in the area.

We hope to see you all there!
