25 excellent submissions have been received this year and only 12 have been selected (less than 50%) for presentation. The program gathers valuable and high quality scientific contributions. The selection was very difficult because some rejected submissions were also very interesting. It makes the FOSS4G academic track a very selective scientific event with growing visibility and acknowledgment from academia, R&D institutions and a large part of the community.
