And if you wake up early, you'll find seats!
Keynote starts: "FOSDEM is the center of open source" "The center of Belgium" "The center of the European Union" "The center of the free world"
First slide with "sovereignty" on it. "If we lose democracy, open source will be irrelevant"

The numbers: 1014 events, 1186 speakers, 66 track/devrooms
"Don't skip the food queue but let staff and volunteers do it."

"FOSS in times of war, scarcity and (adversarial) AI", talk by Michiel Leenaars "We need to talk about war"'
