The first GUADEC was organised by Mathieu Lacage as a one-off event and attracted around seventy GNOME contributors.[1] It was the first time many of them had met in person. The conference was judged a success, and has been held annually in different locations since then, organised by local volunteers. The size has increased five-fold since the first conference.

gollark: However, if you spin the entire thing very fast you can generate "gravity" centrifugally.
gollark: Without anything else going on, if you stood on the inner surface you'd fall into the star.
gollark: The original ringworld concept by Niven has a really big… ring… around a star.
