Free Software and Open Source Symposium
Introduction
This was my first time attending FSOSS and I had a great time. I had always thought about attending this event in the past, but I never got around to doing it. Seeing as this year I was taking an open source course and had learned such great things about the open source community, I thought attending this event would be a great learning experience. I arrived at the event quite early and met some very friendly people. I even met some people for our open source class that I either hadn’t met or spoken to in a while and we discussed our open source projects. It was really interesting just talking to some other people about what they were working on. I attended quite a few talks throughout the event, but I am only going to summarize two of them. Then I will just give a brief run through of a few other presentations that I attended that I found interesting. Then I will compare the main presentations I attended, give my views on open source and conclusions from the event.
