TOPIC 3 - Featured Future Events - Fran

  • Salon Primevere (Lyon, France) 4th-5th
  • It’s a huge fair held near Lyon. 30000 visitors last year. There’s a big Free Digital space (Espace numérique libre) where we will have a booth along with other open source and open internet projects: wikimedia, Libreoffice, Openstreetmaps for the most famous and other local communities (that we know from the JDLL). We were contacted to hold a booth and make demos of Firefox on smartphones and desktop
  • Rust Hack Day (Kanpur, India) 5th
  • We are organizing a one day sprint where we hack on Rust from scratch 1. Introduction to Rust Programming Language 2. Building Web applications using IRON 3. Contribution pathways for newcomers to contribute to Rust Codebase
  • Internet Freedom Festival (Valencia, Spain) 6th-10th
  • The IFF encourages a meaningful interaction between the different groups and regions of the free software community, privacy on the web, and access to information, creating an environment of diversity and inclusion within the event. Where people from different branches meet as developers, designers, communicologists, among others.
  • SUMO & L10n week (Campinas, Online, Brazil) 8th-15th
  • The Firefox 52 is scheduled for release in March 2017 and will bring new features to users and developers. The L10n pt-BR team, accordingly, made some changes in the nomenclature of some interface items and, consequently, SUMO articles need to follow such changes. That’s why we launched this campaign to update all articles about FIrefox in SUMO’s knowledge base.
