GNOME Montréal Summit Starts Tomorrow

Vue du vieux-port et du centre-ville de Montréal

The annual GNOME summit starts tomorrow. Contributors are gathering from around the world for four days of discussion and working sessions. Scheduled topics include Wayland, Boxes, and the GNOME continuous build system.

Traditionally held in Boston, this is the 13th GNOME summit, and the second to be held in Montréal.

The summit is an informal event and everyone is welcome. For those who are interested, there will be a happy hour community meetup with the Montreal Linux community on Saturday afternoon. More information can be found on the wiki.

Thanks to CRIM for hosting the event and Savoir-faire Linux for sponsoring. Thanks also to Red Hat for sponsoring the Sunday social event, and to Canonical for providing our hungry hackers with tea, coffee and bagels.

This year’s GNOME Boston Summit will be held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Columbus Day Weekend (6th – 8th October), at the MIT Tang Center.

The Boston Summit is a three-day event for GNOME developers and contributors. Unlike traditional conferences, Boston Summit is all about getting developers together and getting things done. There will be lots of discussion and planning, as well as hacking and a small number of presentations. There are also plans to run sessions for newcomers and GNOME users, such as a GNOME “installfest” and opportunities to learn about GNOME technologies.

If you are planning on coming to Boston Summit 2012, please tell us!
