FreeBSD Office Hours
The FreeBSD Community joins together every two weeks (or so) to host FreeBSD Office Hours 1) sessions.
The first event was held on Wednesday April 1 and had a general focus with discussions directed by attendee questions. In addition to General Q&A, we’d also like to run Demo, Tutorial and Topic based Sessions.
If you have a topic you’d like to see covered, please add it below including a preferred date and time.
