Pau was awesome and already requested the devroom and stand for us for<br>
FOSDEM 2016. The call for maintrack speakers is also open now. If you<br>
can think of something cool please do submit a talk. It'd be great to<br>
have one of us on the main stage talking about a KDE-related topic. If<br>
you need help let me know.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

and so on, and personally interact with the visitors.<br>

What we offer:<br>
<br>
- one 180x80cm table, positioned in one of the buildings with<br>
developer rooms, for the entire duration of the conference. In some<br>
cases, a second table may be possible, if you have a good reason to<br>
need two.<br>
- two chairs per table<br>
- one power socket type C/E (if you require adapters or additional<br>
sockets, please bring them yourself)<br>
- fast uplink shared wireless Internet access<br>
