Dear all,

Apologies for any confusion, the FOSDEM Devroom dates in my previous post
need to be be changed.

The next edition will take place on 2 - 3 February 2019. For the fifth time
there will be a Geospatial devroom and it will be happening on Sunday
*3/2/2018* from 9.00-17.00!

Kind regards,

Marc Vloemans
