The sixth edition of the Libre Software Meeting (LSM) will take place from July, 5th to July, 9th in Dijon, in the East of France. This year, the university of Bourgogne is hosting the event in the Miranda building of its
science faculty.
LSM is the largest meeting totally dedicated to free software in the world. Over 1000 people from more than 50 countries on 5 continentscame to Metz and Bordeaux for the previous editions, in 2003 and 2004.
The LSM combines two complementary events :
- a meeting of software developers and designers coming to discuss of their projects in a friendly environment ;
- a meeting for a broader audience that aims at addressing some questions surrounding free software.
The organisation of technical conferences is an opportunity for developers to exchange information about their projects, while the organisation of conferences for a broader audience is an opportunity for end-users to meet
the software developers.
