I will be going to #packagingcon 2023 in #berlin!

I don't believe in paid conferences. Conferences are meant for free thought sharing with as little borders as possible, and paywall is a huge border, not only for the price but just for inconvenience of paying, especially from some countries. I've been asked several times if I'm going to represent #repology on #packagingcon. Well, I don't see any point, and I don't expect to see many enthusiasts there and I can't see how [FOSS] packaging can be improved in such unwelcome commercial environment.

The submission deadline for #PackagingCon has been extended to the end of Sunday, 6 August, ANYWHERE ON EARTH. Please help spread the word.

@sesivany watching @civodul 's Packaging Grail talk from #PackagingCon will reassure you that... your weird feeling is indeed justified

We're very happy to be sponsoring the first edition of #PackagingCon, a new conference for developers of package management software, software packagers and communities! Streaming live tomorrow & Wednesday! Join us! https://packaging-con.org/

Is there a ical feed for all the #packagingcon talks? I'd like to feed it into a conference organizer...

My #packagingcon talk on packaging #rust applications was accepted! Now I'm going to need to actually put something together. If I get stuff put together correctly then #guix might be nearly done with cargo-inputs and actually have dependency tracking when it comes to rust.
