There’s again time for a Skolelinux/Debian Edu developer gathering in Norway, and Redpill-Linpro in Oslo have gracefully offered their space to us. The gathering will take place between Friday the 10th to Sunday the 12th, so book your transportation now. We will try to cover a lot of subjects during this weekend, so anyone should find something of interest. As usual this is both a social event and a place to endorse free and open software, so don’t be shy about your own abilities to contribute. Due to safety guidelines and restrictions, the conference room have limited space, so contact one of us to make sure there’s a spot for you as well. Contact information and schedule are available at http://friprogramvareiskolen.no/Gathering/2012-02-10-12-Oslo

We look forward to seeing you there!
