At #FOSDEM I promised people that if you attend the talk by @nicorikken and myself you will feel better afterwards. From the feedback we received I think we accomplished this.

The recording of the talk "Automating translation of a bestseller to spark children's interest in coding" is now also online here, so if you ever need some "feel good" moments around #softwarefreedom feel free to watch: https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/R9Q9ZP-ada-zangemann-bestseller-automation/ #zangemann

Some folks at #FOSDEM tried to buy the makeshift hats one of our team members brought, so I arranged for this prototype of an official hat to be made. It's a fisherman beanie with our logo embroidered. I'm trying to gauge interest here. Is this something you'd buy? (Poll in follow-up post)

OpenBenches at FOSDEM

https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2026/02/openbenches-at-fosdem/

At the recent FOSDEM, I did a very quick lightning talk about our OpenBenches project.

Sadly, despite the best efforts of the AV team, the video had a missing section. I took my own audio recording and zipkid took some photos, so I was able to recreate it using the Flowblade video editor.

Enjoy!

Many thanks to Edward Betts for running the dev room and providing the display laptop.

Was going through some of the #fosdem talks and noticed one on something called #JMAP maintained by #fastmail mainly for managing/syncing contacts and calendars. Is there anything in terms of self hosting a server yet that i can then develop something that will connect to it? I see someone made a nextcloud proxy but i dont really want to spin up a massive nextcloud server just for contacts/calendar. Id like to use it for #mobilelinux so hopefully gnome/kde support it upstream at some point.
