Hi list members,

See the announcement of the CAD and Open hardware developers room below.

I think Javier forgot to mention pcb-rnd, me thinks all "fork" 
developers are welcome too ;-)

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.

FOSDEM 2019 CAD and Open Hardware Devroom Call for Participation
----------------------------------------------------------------

This is the call for participation in the FOSDEM 2019 devroom on
Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools and Open Hardware, to be held on
Sunday 3 February 2019 in Brussels, Belgium. We are looking for
contributions under the form of talks and tutorials covering the
following main topics:

- Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design tools (e.g. KiCad and gEDA)
- Analogue and digital simulators (e.g. ngspice, Qucs, Gnucap, Xyce,
   GHDL, Icarus and Verilator)
- Any other EDA tools such as high-level tools for digital hardware
   design (e.g. Migen) and HDL synthesis tools (e.g. Yosys)
- Field solvers such as openEMS
- Mechanical 2D and 3D CAD tools such as LibreCAD, FreeCAD, OpenSCAD and
   SolveSpace
- Open Hardware projects such as the Teres laptop and the lowRISC SoC
- Inter-project opportunities for collaboration

We hope to provide an opportunity for attendees to bring themselves up
to date on the latest FOSS CAD and Open Hardware developments, share
knowledge and identify opportunities to collaborate on development
tasks. This devroom is an evolution of the EDA devroom we organised in
2015, 2016 and 2017, which enlarged its scope in the CAD and Open
Hardware devroom in 2018.


The submission process
----------------------

Please submit your proposals at
https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM19 before 1 December 2018.

If you already have a Pentabarf account (for example as a result of
having submitted a proposal in the past), make sure you use it to log in
and submit your proposal. Do not create a new account if you already
have one. Please provide a bit of information about yourself under
Person ->  Description ->  Abstract. When you submit your proposal
(creating an "Event" in Pentabarf), make sure you choose the "CAD and
Open Hardware Devroom" in the track drop-down menu. Otherwise your
proposal might go unnoticed. Fill in at least a title and abstract for
the proposed talk and a suggested duration. Bear in mind that a lot of
the value in these meetings comes from the discussions, so please be
reasonable regarding the duration of the talk.


Important dates
---------------

8 December 2018: deadline for submission of proposals
15 December 2018: announcement of final schedule
3 February 2019: devroom day


Recordings
----------

The FOSDEM organisers hope to be able to live-stream and record all the
talks. The recordings will be published under the same licence as all
FOSDEM content (CC-BY). Only presentations will be recorded, not
informal discussions and whatever happens during breaks between
presentations. By agreeing to present at FOSDEM, you automatically give
permission to be recorded. The organisers will agree to make exceptions
but only for exceptional and well-reasoned cases.


Mailing list
------------

Feel free to subscribe to the mailing list of the CAD and Open Hardware
devroom (https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/open-hardware-devroom) to
submit ideas, ask questions and generally discuss about the event.
