[oe] [Fwd: [Openembedded-private] URGENT: FOSDEM devroom and stand requests]

[Robert Schuster]

Hi,
another update!

I got in contact with the OpenWRT guys and we agree on sharing a devroom
at the next FOSDEM.

In case we get a room we need to provide talks for it.

Possible topics:
- general OpenEmbedded presenting talk
- Bitbake future
- U-Boot
- Qi
- Beagleboard, Gumstix Overo
- BugLabs Bugboards
- <your favorite embedded Linux topic here>

If you feel in the mood for doing a talk (short ones please: 10-20
minutes) please speak out loudly.

We need to provide a plan of our talks sometime in January so please
start thinking about this soon. :)

Regards
Robert
