Mageia at RMLL – and a roundup

Please join us at RMLL! 

RMLL  (also known as LSM, Libre Software Meeting) is one of Mageia’s important annual events and 2018 is no different. It’s the premier world meeting for Libre Software, upon the principles of which our distro and our community is based.

This year RMLL is to be held in in Strasbourg, and we have a booth! We’re calling for people to come and spend a little time on the stand, or a lot of time if you have a lot – we need Mageians to come talk to people about our distro, and encourage them to try us out, join the community and contribute in any way they want. It’s also a great opportunity to meet a wide variety of people in the Libre Software community, both developers and users, and catch up on what’s happening in our world.

Our own jybz will be there, and dtux/LibrePC; there’s a Framadate for people to sign up to attend the booth – note that the first volunteers will need to set the stand up.

RMLL runs from July 7th through 12th; jybz has set up a Framapad  with information about organising things ahead of time.

So, if you’ll be around Strasbourg while RMLL is on, please jump in!
