Re: Kicad presented at Fosdem

 

hi guys.
the conference is actually in Feb 2014 and i think there is plenty of time?
Dick, no problem if i cant present, thanks Brian for offering yout time.
well Fosdem is s very generic divulgative conf. on open source activities
with sw engieers attending for sure. how about having a look at some 2012
videos/slides?
all in all, i think you will be free to go for the topic you like the best.
cheers
