📣 CFP for the #FOSDEM 2026 Funding the FOSS Ecosystem Devroom is closing soon!

This devroom brings together developers, #maintainers, #policymakers, funders, and donors to explore how #FOSS projects can access grants, alternative funding models, and support from public and private sectors and how funding impacts #security, #sustainability, and developer well-being.
