Hello,
I have the pleasure to announce that the X.org Developer Conference 2014 will be held in Bordeaux, France from October 8th to October 10th. The venue is located in the campus of the University of Bordeaux 1, in the computer science research lab called LaBRI.
The official page for the event is http://www.x.org/wiki/Events/XDC2014 while the call for paper is at http://www.x.org/wiki/Other/Press/CFP2014/
As usual, we are open to talks across the layers of the graphics stack, from the kernel to desktop environments / graphical applications and about how to make things better for the developers who build them. If you're not sure if something might fit, mail me or add it to the ideas list found in the program page.
The conference is free of charge and opened to the general public. If you plan on coming, please add yourself to the attendees list. We'll use this list to make badges and plan for the catering.
I am looking forward to seeing you there, if you have any inquiries/questions, please send them to me (please also CC: board@foundation.x.org).
Martin Peres
