Fosdem started out with a meeting on the market of Brussels, because de "Roy d'Espagne" was kind of full the oe people decided to meet at another place. After some phonecalls me and Likewise where able to find the place. In the place we had all together a homemade beer from the house and talked about various issues. It was great to see each other because for example I had never seen most people before. After some beers most of us left for the astridhotel and me Xora and Likewise left to see some some other pubs. On saturday morning we went to the university and we went to our booth, I was the first to arrive at the booth thanks to the friend of Klaas van Gent who gave me a lift. We had sufficient time to take care of our booth and Laibsch, Koen, Xora , Likewise, Hrw,Zecke took with me care of the booth. In the beginning we had some trouble with Belgium power outlets but hapilly Jan was so kind to donate power outlets to us !!. Saturday was the most busy day we had a constant stream of visitors to our booth and we received two donations of hardware and a couple of donations are comming up. We received a donation from Trolltech who donated the greenphone to us and we received some flashcards and a orinoco wireless-card. Furthermore we talked with the guy from the one laptop per child initiative, maybe we will get one to put support for it in oe. Furthermore there was a guy who will send us a palm treo. The openmoko presentation was visited by many more people as we expected and not everybody that wanted to get in was able to get in. Overall my conclussion is that the fosdem for oe was quite succesfull, somethings we need to do better in the future, we need to have more space (one table was not enough) and we need to have more promotional material. --Boundary_(ID_P1fQADU9q8m/PZ9JLhJQeQ)--
