As a post- #FOSDEM2026 consideration, I did contract a standard #rhinovirus (negative for flu and COVID) and lost 3-4 days of work this time. Not a whole month like last year, but serious productivity problem and sadly missed the (0penemnedded summit). I was masked indoors at all times during the event.
At this point , I am seriously considering only #FOSDEM outdoors: make myself available for a series of outdoor meetings and watch talks on video.
