We've talked in the past about hosting a Wikimedia dev room or table for
FOSDEM, but never got our acts together to apply. I think we should
*totally* apply for a wiki devroom this year - FOSDEM is one of the best
conferences I've ever been to, and especially given our wiki-representation
in Europe, there are a million reasons why we should have a strong presence
there. Let's do it!

time to apply for DevRooms and main track sessions.

Key dates:
15 September
* deadline for developer room proposals
1 October
* deadline for main track proposals
* accepted developer rooms announced
I think Wikimedia needs FOSDEM and FOSDEM needs Wikimedia. We could
mobilize European developers and tech-friendly chapters to work on a
combined outreach action.
First things first: proposing a Wiki DevRoom. What do you think? Note that
it's "Wiki", not just Wikimedia or MediaWiki.
We should also brainstorm what are the best main track session candidates.
