FOSDEM 2026 is approaching, and here's a short post with recommendations for those interested in the topic of this blog.

Before I mention stands and talks and therefore points in space and time, let me recommend nav.fosdem.org, a neat web map to find the rooms more easily.

The stands

This FOSDEM will feature three stands with a focus on running Linux on Mobile:

  • FuriLabs
  • Linux on Mobile (find me there)
  • postmarketOS

All in building UD, level 2 - where I have never been, but it's close to the food trucks, which is good, and not to far from the dev room.

Aside from these,

are in K level 2 (group B), various instant messaging stands are in AW level 1, and the PINE64 Community will be present in building K level 1 on Sunday.

Talks

Luckily, there'll be another "FOSS on Mobile" devroom in UB4.132 (yes, 4th floor), covering the whole saturday. There's one caveat though: This year, it also features various talk on FOSS AOSP projects, that have been traditionally in a different room - it's all FOSS on Mobile, so one room is okay :-)

As I won't have the time to update a local copy of the schedule, just check it out on the FOSDEM.org page.

Other noteworthy talks include:

The list of recommendations on CNX-Software may also be helpful.

If you've found something else that should be in this post, let me know!
