FOSDEM is an open source conference in Brussels, February 2-3 2013. Wikimedians who want to give a talk there are eligible for Participation Support subsidies:

I encourage you to submit a talk, to the main conference or the devrooms, about MediaWiki, your work on bots, legal/licensing issues, mobile, our use of MySQL or PHP, or other relevant topics. I can help you develop a talk proposal. Deadlines are coming up in December.
Hello,
When you prepare your talk, keep in mind FOSDEM follows two objectives:
* get the opportunity for the open source community to meet * outreach - attract new developers (and geeks) interested by your talk
At the BSD devroom, 1/3 of the public are NetBSD and FreeBSD contributors, 2/3 members external to these communities.
If you've questions or inquiries about FOSDEM, I will be happy to assist you ; as a former FOSDEM organization volunteer, I know pretty well the topic.

Thanks for the reminder Sumana. I recall hearing that we were going to try to secure a devroom, but that fell through and were hoping to try to share a devroom with some other org(s). What is the current status of this?
