14 DAY TRIAL // Today, September 19, 2016, was the first day of the first-ever LAS (Libre Application Summit) GNOME open source conference for GNU/Linux application developers.
As you might have guessed already, the event is being organized by the GNOME Project, the same non-profit organization that's behind the popular GNOME desktop environment used in numerous Linux kernel-based operating systems around the globe, and an important part of the Free Software ecosystem.
LAS (Libre Application Summit) GNOME conference's main goal is to encourage the growth of the Linux application ecosystem among small and medium-sized businesses, as well as various educational institutions. It also aims to expand the collaboration between the Linux kernel and major GNU/Linux operating systems.
Whom is LAS GNOME for? Any open source application developer, as well as members of the FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) communities around the world. The conference takes place between September 19 and September 23, and you need to be there if you care about the future of the Linux app ecosystem.
"Together, they will collaborate on actionable goals to further evolve the application market in GNU/Linux, create and design better application development tools, and improve the developer and user experience in general for the GNU/Linux desktop," said the event's organizers in a press announcement.
The event is held in Portland, Oregon, USA, at the Eliot Center. There, you will be able to share your knowledge with other open source application developers and learn new things. To register and learn more about LAS GNOME, please visit las.gnome.org.
