The developer conference for the Debian Project, titled DebConf24, is scheduled to be held in Busan, South Korea between July 28th and August 4th, 2024.
Busan, a prominent port city known for its picturesque beaches, impressive mountains, and historic temples, was chosen as an alternative to the originally planned location, Haifa, Israel. The DebConf committee opted for the change due to the current situation in Israel. Click here to know more about the change of location.
The conference will commence with the usual DebCamp hacking session from July 21st to July 27th, providing a platform for all Debian developers to participate.
As the principal gathering for the Debian Project each year, DebConf offers a valuable experience for Debian developers and users worldwide. They can interact, exchange their ideas, and establish plans for the upcoming major release of the Debian GNU/Linux operating system.
Earlier this month, the Debian Project’s DebConf team held the DebConf24 logo contest asking the community for an image that would represent the host city of Busan, the host nation of South Korea, and the 25th Debian Developer Conference.
The winner was announced as Woohee Yang, whose beautiful new logo for DebConf24 will be used to promote the DebConf24 conference. Woohee Yang is part of the local team for DebConf at Busan.
The final schedule for DebConf24 is yet to be published and no talks have been accepted yet, so you can still submit an event proposal. Meanwhile, keep an eye on the official website for more details about accommodation, travel information, bursaries, and other info related to the Debian conference for 2024.
