FOSDEM 2008: More Interviews with Speakers

Feb 14, 2008

The organizers of the FOSDEM developer conference (Brussels, Belgium, 23 through 24 February 2008) have placed more interviews with speakers online.

Following the interviews last month, the FOSDEM team now offers more appetizers just a week prior to the event.

Among others, Kurt Pfeifle and Simon Peter talk about their Klik system which facilitates software downloading and execution on a number of Linux distributions. At FOSDEM 2008 they will be talking on the new Klik 2 implementation. Andrei Zmievski talks to interviewers about PHP 6 and PHP-Gtk 2, and Steven Knight introduces Scons, a cross-platform build system written in Python. The FOSDEM website has a list of the new interviews.

The FOSDEM European Developer Conference has been staged late February in Brussels for many years. Besides talks it offers free software projects the ability to hold workshops in developer rooms. Entry is free. Linux Magazine will be broadcasting the main track talks live via video streaming.
