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.
What time is convenient for you to participate in Office Hours? POLL
We are looking for 3 or 4 volunteers to rotate as hosts. If you are interested in helping by running the streaming portion of these events, please get in touch
/* * Calendar of upcoming events */
From demos and tutorials to straight up Q&A, the goal of these sessions is to help foster development within FreeBSD while raising awareness of the Project.
