T-DOSE is a free and yearly event held in The Netherlands to promote use and development of Open Source Software. During this event Open Source projects, developers and visitors can exchange ideas and knowledge. This years event will be held on 27 and 28 October 2012 at the Fontys University of Applied Science in Eindhoven.
In the closing session Jeroen Baten announced that he is going to resign as chairman of the T-DOSE Foundation. Jeroen and Jean-Paul started the T-DOSE Foundation in 2006 and together with a group of volunteers they organized the yearly T-DOSE event. In January 2011 Rene Elders joined the board.
The 6th edition of T-DOSE (Technical Dutch Open Source Event) was a success. The keynote by Simon Phipps drew an analogy between business practices and social interaction throughout the ages. A number of tracks (including the keynote) have been recorded by CityTV and can be viewed here.
So you've been playing with your Arduino, maybe connecting some LEDs and sensors and wondering where to go next? Hackable Devices offers the possibility to get to know your Arduino just a little bit better. Using the Liquid Crystal library we'll help you to connect a standard 16-pin LCD screen to your Arduino and to program fun stuff on it.
The T-DOSE event attracts people from all over Europe (Belgium, France, German, Great Britain, Spain and Netherlands). Although still small in numbers some are already in Eindhoven on Friday night. This is a call for those that want to have a get together on Friday the 4th on the evening before T-DOSE itself starts. If there are people interested, then please let us know by signing up on this page.
The Friday night event will start at 20:00 in the Trafelgar Pub in the Dommelstraat (http://www.thetrafalgarpub.nl/en/)

At Saturday 5th November during the fist day of T-DOSE the Fontys University of Applied science has his Open Day. These days are focused at potential students.
Potential students walk through all buildings and visit all departments. Various setups are on display for all parts of an education track, think of languages (English, German, French, Dutch), mathematics, science (physics, computers, chemistry), geography, biology or finance.
T-DOSE social event takes place on Saturday November 5th, 2011 from 18:00 till the end. On this social event you will be able to meet speakers, members of Open Source projects or your fellow developers. Attendees of the social event will gather at the entrance of the T-DOSE event location. Don't be late, we will leave on 18:00 hrs to the Social Event somewhere in Eindhoven.
The CFP deadline has passed on 31st August 2011 and numerous high quality talks have been submitted and selected. I would like to thank all submitters for their contribution.
