VideoLAN Dev Days 2011
The Open Multimedia Conference that frees the cone in you!
What are the VideoLAN Dev Days?
The VideoLAN non-profit organisation is happy to invite you to the multimedia open-source event of the end of summer:
For its third edition, people from the VideoLAN community will meet in Paris to gather, work, discuss and meet, on the 3rd and 4th of September 2011.
For the first time, though, an important number of developers from x264, FFmpeg and Libav, will join us!
Developers, designers and anonymous people around VLC, DVBlast, VLMa, skin-designer or other multimedia projects will be there too.
Who can come?
Anyone that cares about open source multimedia.
If you are not a technical person, but an enthusiast, we recommend you to come to the less technical events, like in the evenings.
