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 2026 conference in Firenze, a number of spaces have been reserved for people to flock together in Birds of a Feather sessions.
For reference, an overview of the FOSS4G schedule is available at here.
How to organize a BOF
BoF sessions are informal gatherings of people around a specific topic. BoF's can be held in: BoF rooms or taken off-site for breakfast, lunch or dinner!
The FOSS4G conference provides the spaces, but the setup of the bird-of-feather meetup is done informally using this wiki.
