GUADEC 2020 + Covid-19 = Online Conference

Few days ago, someone posted GUADEC (the GNOME Users And Developers European Conference) invitation on Gnome Malaysia telegram group.

To be honest, I did’t alert too much what event happening around but I think GUADEC is worth to steal my attention because I am Gnome lover and this is good chances to join the event because this year, GUADEC 2020 will take place entirely online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. So you (me and someone else who far from europe) don’t need to go europe to join :P

This event is coming next month start from 22nd July - 28th July 2020. GUADEC, it’s a once-a-year event that brings us together to collaborate, celebrate, and learn; meet our colleagues and friends; and strengthen the most special part of the GNOME project.

Maybe most of participant actualy will be sad because unable see each other in person this year. But this will be open oppurtunity for someone who cannot affort for travel if held as usual but now they can!

You can check time table to know what time and what talk is about. Don’t forget to also import details event calendar. For me, who live in Malaysia, this event will be happen at night, so normally and expecting I have free time to join this event.

Oh yeah, don’t forget to register HERE (deadline: 28 Jul 2020). last not least, thank you Redhat, Codethink for sponsors and Gnome community for this event.

So far, the from latest discussion on discourse.gnome.org, GNOME will use BigBlueButton for this conference, all sessions will be recorded for everyone who won’t be able to attend talks due to timezones and conference start from 15:00 UTC to 20:15 UTC.

See you there!
