The submission deadline for talk proposals is December 1st, 2023. FOSDEM is one of the most important free software conferences and is hosted annually at Université libre de Bruxelles in Brussels, Belgium. This year FOSDEM will be a physical conference. Talks will be done in person. We accept talks from languages that attempt to minimize use of hardware and software while trying to make systems simpler, more robust and more secure. If you are working on improving today's systems taking declarative/minimalistic approaches feel free to submit a talk proposal. Examples include the Scheme/Lisp family of programmings languages. In past editions, this devroom has received presentations from a varied number of language communities, including Forth, Guile, Lua, Nim, Racket, Raku and Tcl as well as several experimental projects that push minimalism in new directions. Minimalism and declarative programming are two important topics for this devroom. Minimalism matters. Minimalism allows for smaller systems that take less resources and consume less energy. More importantly, free and open source minimalism allows for secure systems that are easy to understand. Declarative programming is a programming paradigm that expresses the logic of a computation without describing its control flow. Many languages that apply this style attempt to minimize or eliminate side effects by describing what the program must accomplish in terms of the problem domain, rather than describe how to accomplish it as a sequence of the programming language primitives. Finally, in this year's conference, we will honor the late Joe Armstrong for his pioneering contributions to concurrent and fault-tolerant computing systems. Armstrong is best known as the principal inventor of the Erlang programming language, which embodies the principles of concurrency, distribution, and fault-tolerance, making it a cornerstone in the realm of declarative and minimalistic computing. Erlang has been instrumental in powering highly scalable and reliable systems, particularly in telecommunications and distributed systems. We want to invite you to submit a talk on declarative and minimalistic computing that fits that description. We are especially happy to receive talk submissions from members of groups underrepresented in free software. If you have something you’d like to share with your fellow developers, please E-mail us! Reach out to pjotr.public456@thebird.nl or manolis837@gmail.com if you run into any trouble. The deadline for submission is December 1st. Proposals must be submitted on FOSDEM's conference management system: . Heads up that this year FOSDEM is not relying on the good old Pentabarf but on Pretalx. All submissions must go through pretalx: When submitting your talk make doubly sure to select "Declarative and Minimalistic Computing devroom" as track (if you don't we won't find it), and include the following information: * The title and subtitle of your talk * A short abstract of one paragraph * A longer description if you wish to do so * Links to related websites/blogs etc To see what a final talk looks like see https://archive.fosdem.org/2021/schedule/event/gnumes/ Let's make this a fun day! = Organizers = Pjotr Prins, Manolis Ragkousis, Jonhathan McHugh, Bonface Munyoki, Arun Isaac, Ludovic Courtès, Amirouche Boubekki, Hisham Muhammad, Jan Nieuwenhuizen, Ricardo Wurmus, Alex Sassmannshausen, William Byrd, Oliver Propst, Efraim Flashner, Julien Lepiller = Code of conduct = - https://fosdem.org/2024/practical/conduct/ = Original proposal = - https://libreplanet.org/wiki/FOSDEM2024-devroom-proposal = Important dates: = - Dec 1st 2023: submission deadline for talk proposals - Dec 15th 2023: announcement of the final schedule - Feb 4th 2024: FOSDEM!
