Hello MySQL enthusiasts!

We are excited to announce the schedule for the MySQL & Friends devroom at FOSDEM 2023. This year’s devroom will feature a diverse lineup of talks and presentations focused on MySQL.

The program is still in draft form as we await confirmation of accepted speakers.

We encourage you to mark your calendars and join us for what promises to be an engaging and informative event.

In addition, don’t miss the chance to extend your stay in Belgium and participate to the preFOSDEM MySQL Days that will take place on 2nd and 3rd February 2023. Registration here.

Sunday, Feb 5th

Hello,

Due to a complete misunderstanding about the available slots, FOSDEM’s organization had to remove 2 talks from the previous planned agenda.

Two talks were then moved to Saturday and the two backup talks were immediately added to the schedule !

More work for us and our speakers but more pleasure for all the MySQL fans !
