Design & Documentation Clinics at FOSDEM Fringe 2026

We are planning to go through Best Practices for Documentation and Design for Open Source projects, have an introduction to projects that are interested in…

@angrox it's definitely the one venue I feel the strongest need to mask all year - it's too packed with people from all over the world (and thus various strains of a lot of respiratory germs) and too poorly ventilated (for the crowd size) to be safe

Thinking of mostly avoiding it next time in favor of just #FOSDEMFringe events and @fluconf #fluConf plus meeting people away from the venue - especially if I catch something despite being masked. Two colleagues already caught something

Hello from Meta Belgium, on yet another unseasonably sunny day in #Brussels! Hosting a @centos #CentOS #documentation and #website / #systemd #hackathon

Thanks to @mozillaofficial for my really nice #FOSDEM2025 shirt

@edward I'm carrying mine but I'm afraid to look, I'll sync it to my phone after the two days are over I guess to do a compare and contrast with the #CentOSConnect #FOSDEMFringe event

Thank you for attending and all the feedback, and to @jonathanspw for graciously going above and beyond taking photos

From ELN to EPEL 10: tracking and bringing up packages with poi-tracker and ebranch CentOS Connect

Many, if not most, deployments of CentOS Stream and its downstreams (RHEL and derivatives) require packages from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repositories, which requires bootstrapping for every major EL release. This is a follow-up to previous CentOS Connect talks, discussing how I am using poi-tracker to track packages, export them to ELN Extras workloads, and then use ebranch to branch and build these packages and their dependencies in EPEL 10. I plan to release the first stable versions of poi-tracker and ebranch at Connect, after stress-testing ebranch across two EL releases (9 and 10).

If you're a @fedora or @centos contributor like me and you feel a bit mind blown, yes, me too!

Thank you @Conan_Kudo for the declarative #Linux #distribution compose tool, #Kurchu, that we are now using for #CentOSHyperscale images

Took almost an hour from entering until this bottle shows up, but worth it

To the person asking for the #Evolution #email client for #CentOS_Stream 10 - I just checked with #ebranch and there are only 9 packages needed, so I'll try and get it into either @fedora #EPEL or if there are conflicting dependencies, into the @gnome repo we're currently incubating in the #HyperscaleSIG
