Appearance
FOSDEM (Brussels, Belgium) is probably the best community driven FOSS event in Europe. It's massive, chaotic and fun.
Like previous years, FOSDEM is organised at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. Coordinates: 50.81 N 4.38 E.
FOSDEM is free to attend. There is no registration. Just turn up!
