Hi Hackers!
The FOSDEM organisation has been so nice as to provide us with a
developer room during the conference, which is the weekend of February
26 and 27 in the beautiful city of Brussels, Belgium. We asked a
couple of people to give talks and reserved some time to have
technical planning and discussion sessions.
Everybody interested in any way in GNU Classpath, gcj, kaffe or any
other related free software project is invited to join us.
For more information on FOSDEM see http://www.fosdem.org/
When we have more details about the program, talks and discussion
sessions we will publish them here (currently still empty):
