Debian Day

Debian Day will take place on 24th of July 2011 at Banski Dvor.

Debian Day kicks off DebConf, is free of charge, and open for everybody interested in Free Software. During this event, there will be a full day of talks on several subjects such as free software in government, design and free software, free software advocacy as well as string of talks about the Debian project and operating system.

The Debian Project is an association of individuals who have made common cause to create a free and open operating system. This operating system that we have been creating is called Debian GNU/Linux, or simply Debian for short. Every year, DebConf allows new and existing Debian project participants from around the world to assemble, share knowledge and ideas, make collaborative contributions to Debian, build tighter community bonds and improve communication within the project.

We would love to see you join us at Debian Day. Registration is required but is free.

What is DebConf?

Debian Conference is the annual Debian developers meeting, an event filled with coding parties, discussions and workshops - all of them highly technical in nature. DebConf 11 will be held in, Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina, from 24th to 30th July 2011.

Previous Debian Conferences have featured speakers from around the world. They have also been extremely beneficial for developing key Debian software components, including the new Debian Installer, and for improving Debian's internationalization.

It is highly recommended to check out Welcome to DebConf11 page for detailed logistical information about attending the Conference, including directions, what to bring, etc.

Debian Camp

Development teams like debian-installer and debian-edu also have the possibility of meeting beforehand for undisturbed collaborative work. However, note that only the basic necessities like bed and network connection will be provided at that time. Interested teams should contact the organizers upfront to make special arrangements. DebCamp will take place from 17th to 23rd July 2011.

Debian Day

Meanwhile, decision-makers interested in discovering the benefits of Free Software and Debian users were invited to attend Debian Day on the 17th July. This day will be opened broader public and the schedule included presentations of more general interest.
