Gentoo Miniconf<\/b>: It will take place on Saturday and Sunday with a plethora of amazing talks by experienced Developers and Contributors, all around Gentoo, targeting both desktop and server environments!<\/p>\n

On Saturday morning Fabian Groffen, Gentoo Council member, along with Robin H. Johnson, member of the Board of Trustees, will give us a quick view of how those two highest authorities manage the whole project. Afterwards there are going to be a few talks regarding various topics, like managing your home directory, the KDE team workflow, the important topic of Security and a benchmarking suite, all performed by important people for the project. A cool Catalyst workshop will be next, followed by a workshop regarding Gentoo Prefix, and at the end we’re going to participate on BoFs regarding the Infrastructure and the Gentoo PR, which will cover hot topics, like the Git migration and our website. <\/p>\n

On Sunday we’ll see how a large company (IsoHunt) uses Gentoo, the tools it has developed and the problems it has encountered. Then, a cool talk about 3D games and graphic performance is going to take place, followed by a presentation on SHA1 and OpenPGP, which is the precursor of the Key Signing Party!! The second part of the Catalyst workshop is next, along with a Puppet workshop. At the end there are again two BoFs, the first about automated testing and the second about how we can grab more contributors and enlarge our cool project.<\/p>\n
