This +talk will be broader than the scope of Replicant. It will detail how +liberating the software running at the lower levels can prove to be quite +challenging. Those considerations will be made not only regarding the main +processor, but also regarding controllers, peripherals and auxiliary +processors. + +As usual, there will also be plenty of other interesting things to see and +nice people to meet! + +This year, devices from [Tehnoetic][3] with Replicant preinstalled will be +available for sale on the [FSFE][4] booth, as well as other Replicant goodies, +such as [3D-printed keychains][5]! Remember that part of the sales will go to +Replicant. + +We will also organize an informal Replicant developer meeting at some point +during the event, so people interested in contributing to the project are +welcome to join in! + +In addition, note that Richard M. Stallman, launcher of the GNU project and +founder of the Free Software Foundation, will be giving a talk about +[Free/Libre/Vrije Software: The Goal and the Path][6] on Friday evening (the +day before FOSDEM), at Brussels Campus Etterbeek, VUB. + + [1]: <https://fosdem.org/2016/> + + [2]: <https://fosdem.org/2016/schedule/event/liberating_software/> + + [3]: <https://tehnoetic.com/> + + [4]: <https://fsfe.org/> + + [5]: <https://quitter.no/notice/918113> + + [6]: <http://www.freeasinfreedom.be/> + + |
