CI/CD Devroom Call For Proposal - FOSDEM 2023

We are happy to share that the CFP for the CI/CD devroom at FOSDEM 2023, to be held on the afternoon of 4th of February 2023, is now open. Please note that this year FOSDEM will be physical again.

We are looking for contributions in the form of presentations (40min) or lightning talks (20min).

Possible topics include:

  • Project showcases, modern tooling
  • Stories from end-users (e.g. success/failure) about:
  • Continuous Integration
  • Continuous Delivery
  • Continuous Deployment
  • Security in Software Supply Chain
  • Interesting use-cases
  • Pipeline standardization
  • Interoperability in CI/CD
  • Best Practices
  • BoF sessions

Remark: This may sound obvious but we will only accept talks covering open-source.

If you have any issues or questions about the CFP process, please contact cicd-devroom-manager@fosdem.org.
