Fellowship
Registration
is now possible for FSFE's first international Fellowship meet,
November 11th.
I think this is the first free software conference in Europe which
isn't technical, or focused on a particular law, or focused on a
particular country. The idea is to host a get together for all the free
software supporters and activists of Europe. The schedule will be
decided by whoever is coming. That can be discussed on the new
discussion@lists.fsfe.org mailing list.
This is also new for FSFE since it's our first general conference.
FSFE organised one conference before, but that was specific to the
topic
of GPLv3
(the Barcelona event).
"The Fellowship" was launched
in February 2005 as FSFE's membership program for community outreach.
There have been various local meetups organised by the Fellows, and
recently someone suggested a Europe-wide meetup, so that's what's
happening.
The date is Saturday November 11th, and the venue is Bolzano, which is
in South Tyrol, which is in Northern Italy. That time and place was
chosen because there is a free software event happening there on
November 10th, so there're two reasons to come to that part of Italy
that weekend. (That conference is SFScon, but there is
little on their webpage right now.)
Registering is a good idea since then you can see who else will be
there, and it will help in planning what discussions and sessions to
have.
