written by T-DOSE on 2023-04-14

We are pleased to announce the presenters for T-DOSE 2023. We can look forward to some great talks on a wide range of topics, including the classic editor 'ed', Bareos, opsi and Ansible. We also have representatives from the local Home Computer Museum and from FSF Europe. In addition, the Angry Nerds will organise a live podcast from our event. Please check out our schedule for full details. Exact timeslots for the talks will be announced soon. On both conference days, the first presentation will start at 10am, so be sure to check in on time.

Unfortunately, we had a couple of cancellations as well, so there are still extra slots available. Our submission page is still open for last-minute additions. Please contact us if you are interested.

Social Event on Saturday

written by T-DOSE on 2023-04-13

It is a good T-DOSE tradition that we will have a social event with dinner on Saturday evening. This year will be no different. We will get together with T-DOSE organisers, volunteers, speakers and visitors after the first conference day - 22 April at 6pm. We can discuss the interesting presentations of the first day and look forward to what still awaits us on Sunday. Or just hang out with some cool people and discuss whatever you like. Everybody is welcome.

Register now to be a part of this!

In order to prepare for this event, we need a good estimate on how many people will join is. That is why registration is open as of today. 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. Register in advance to guarantee your place at the table.

Social event tickets cost 25 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 the 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 6pm 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 dinner wishes, such as vegetarian food, please specify this in your email.

Announcing project stands

written by T-DOSE on 2023-04-11

As in previous years, we will have an information market during the entire conference, where Open Source related projects can present themselves. This year, there will be several projects that have also been present at previous editions, such as Debian, Hackalot, OpenOffice and Free Your Model Train (FYMT). However, there are also a number of projects that are new to T-DOSE, such as the local Home Computer Museum, opsi, Standard for Public Code and Bareos.

The full list of projects is published on our Projects page, which includes links to the websites of all the organisations for more background information. The official list will be updated in case anything changes. The project bazaar will be available on both days of the conference, during the entire day. Please visit these stands to learn more about these great projects.
