Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Frederic Descamps; Hello, Due to a complete misunderstanding about the available slots, FOSDEM’s organization had to remove 2 talks from the previous planned agenda. However, we didn’t want to announce to previously accepted speakers that their talks were cancelled ! Therefore, we decided, with FOSDEM’s approval, to extend the FOSDEM 2022 MySQL Devroom, opening our room on Saturday afternoon. 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 ! Don’t miss ...

Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Dave Stokes;  FOSDEM has become one of the biggest shows on the calendar of the MySQL Community Team.  FOSDEM itself, until this year, is barely contained chaos at a university in Brussels with no pre-enrollment for any of the dozens of themed rooms and no head count.  This year the event is virtual so you do not have to get to Belgium.The MySQL and Friends Developer Room is Sunday and starts at 10:00am  Belgium time with a retrospective of the first twenty five years of MySQL.

Feed: Planet PostgreSQL. For obvious reason the FOSDEM this year is an online event. The staff is building from scratch an infrastructure in order to deliver the speaker’s videos in a virtual environment. The catch is that all the talks must be pre recorded and uploaded via pentabarf, the software historically used by FOSDEM to manage the talk submissions. What follows is my experience in recording,uploading and submitting the video for my upcoming talk. Presenting the slides I use Beamer to write my slides then after generating the slides’s PDF I used pdfpc to start a windowed presentation. The screenshot ... Read More
