====== FreeBSD Community Day, April 7, 2019 ======

This page describes the April 2019 %%FreeBSD%% Community day, co-located with
[[https://www.foss-north.se|FOSS-north 2019]], which will take place in Gothenburg, Sweden. This is a public
event intended for developers and anyone with an interest in %%FreeBSD%%, or who is
looking to learn more about the project. %%FreeBSD%% committers are welcome to
register themselves using this wiki.
No pre-registration is required, but knowing approximately how many intends to show up makes it easier to size drinks and snacks.
If you are unable to add yourself to the wiki, contact [[/NiclasZeising|NiclasZeising]].

===== Schedule =====

The %%FreeBSD%% Community Day will take place on the 7th of April, starting at 12 noon.

The idea is to have a good mix of interesting %%FreeBSD%% talks, discussions
and to use the day as a way to show off %%FreeBSD%% to people interested in the
Project.  It will also be a chance for users and potential users to meet
developers and to try %%FreeBSD%%.

Here is the agenda:

^ When ^ What ^
| 12:00-12:15 | Opening, introductions |
| 12:15-12:45 | Introduction to %%FreeBSD%% |
| 12:45-13:00 | How to contribute to %%FreeBSD%% |
| 13:00-19:00 | Discussions, meet developers and try out %%FreeBSD%% |
| 19:00-??:?? | Social event at the Steampunk Bar |

===== Maps =====

The %%FreeBSD%% Community Day will be held at the [[https://b3.se|B3 Consulting Group]] offices in central Gothenburg.  The address is
Kämpegatan 6, close to the Gothenburg C rail way station.

To get there from the rail way station, walk out trough the Nils Ericson Bus terminal, all the way to the northernmost exit.
There is construction work going on alongside Götaleden, but there is a walkway through the construction work.
Follow the {{devsummit/201904/purple_sign.jpg?linkonly|purple signs}} pointing you towards Gullbergsstrand, and they'll lead you to the walkway across the construction site.
Once across, you will end up on Kilsgatan, follow that to Kämpegatan, and take a left on Kämpegatan, or follow instructions from Google Maps.
Please note that following instructions from Google Maps from the train station will lead you on a longer route.

If you are interested in attending, please add your name so that I can gauge
