GUADEC

GUADEC, the GNOME Users And Developers European Conference, is an annual conference taking place in Europe, whose prime topic is the development of the GNOME desktop environment and its underlying base software, such as GTK, GStreamer, etc.

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: Troubling.
gollark: Arguably politics runs into problematic human tribal impulses too, and some places ban that in some situations.
gollark: Humans have many weird hardwired instincts regarding it in a way we don't really for everything else.
gollark: Presumably because it is a somewhat taboo topic for lots of people or contexts in modern culture.
gollark: NSFW stuff is *generally* treated specially by stuff. Discord has dedicated NSFW channel handling, say.
