||
9 | |||
10 | |||
11 | Contrary to [[OsmoCon2017]], the Osmocom Developer Conference 2017 ([[OsmoDevCon2017]]) is an event *by project members for project members*. |
||
12 | As such, the primary audience is people who have been contributing to at least one of the Osmocom projects. |
||
13 | |||
14 | It is *not targeted at users*. |
||
15 | |||
16 | Attendance requires registration (see below) and notification of acceptance. There number of participants |
||
17 | is limited to about 20. |
||
18 | |||
19 | |||

||
21 | |||
22 | |||
23 | *April 22 through April 24, 2017* |
||
24 | |||
25 | Time: We will *start at 10am* in the morning, will take *lunch break from 1pm to 3pm* and have an open |
||

||
30 | |||
31 | |||
32 | In the rooms of "IN-Berlin e.V.":http://www.in-berlin.de/, Lehrter Str. 53, 10557 Berlin, Germany, the Universe. |
||
33 | |||
34 | The meeting / seminar / conference room at IN-Berlin is located on ground floor and has windows facing east. |
||
35 | In front of those windows is a road + sidewalk which is directly in north-south direction, |
||
36 | i.e. it _may_ be possible to set up some (GPS, Thuraya, etc.) antennas on the sidewalk, if required. |
||
37 | Some kind of pole+stand is required, though. |
||
38 | |||
39 | |||
40 | h2. Format |
||
41 | |||
42 | |||
43 | The format of this workshop is not primarily formal lectures/talks. It's more like "guided discussions", i.e. there are |
||
44 | topics and each topic will get an "owner" who should introduce the topic and lead the discussion related to it. |
||
