Wichert Akkerman

Debian - what's this then?

Wichert Akkerman
The Debian project has been around for a while now, but it's still a black box to many. An interesting shade of black, but not transparent. In order to assimilate more developers, euhm, that is attract more people to help, this talk will open the box and show what is inside.

We'll discuss a bit of Debian history, why it's so fun to work on it, and how it is build, from the people that work on it, the rules that bind them, to the technical bits like the policy manual and the package manager.
