FSOSS, Free Software and Open Source Symposium, a place where open source community people can meet other people, make new connections, refresh old connections and express their different thoughts on the community. FSOSS is started only seven years before but it has made a huge impression on the open source community. People from various corner of the world came to attend the symposium and to deliver a speech in the symposium. By creating a separate track for “teaching open source”, this year FSOSS has initiated another branch in the open world. This track was a big success in which people discussed how we can teach open source projects to the students. The talk I enjoyed the most was Thunderbird community talk and Pecha-Kuchas. Thunderbird community talk was all about growing the community and making the community healthier. The talk also discussed about obstacles to the community and “Debian Effect.” Pecha-Kuchas is the other presentation that was so much interesting. It was made of series of different presentations from various small communities from the big open source community.
Let me explain these two talks in detail...
