FOSS4G-Europe-2024/BirdsOfAFeather
Introduction
Birds of a Feather (BoF) sessions are unstructured timeslots where people can self-organise themselves to discuss topics of interest.
General Information
At the FOSS4G-Europe-2024 conference in Tartu, a number of spaces have been reserved for people to flock together in Birds of a Feather sessions.
How to organize a BOF
BoF sessions are informal gatherings of people around a specific topic. BoF's can be held in BoF rooms at specified timeslots or taken off-site for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
The FOSS4G Europe conference provides the BoF rooms in the main venue building Vanemuise 46, but the setup of the bird-of-feather meetup is done informally using this wiki by you yourself.
