On 3 & 4 February 2018 we've participated to FOSDEM 2018, the annual Open Source Developers’ European Meeting. 

We've joined forces again with Tiki and FOSWiki and had a stand, where we shared information about our project, made demos, gave away stickers and other goodies. Lots of people were interested in XWiki, which is always nice to see. Talking face to face with our users and contributors always sparks interesting conversations and we have the FOSDEM crew to thank for making this possible.

XWiki SAS sponsored 12 XWikiers to participate to the event and 6 of us held 8 presentations around XWiki or other general interest topics. Here are some videos recordings from the event:
