Instead we will use one of the "general hacking rooms". So far it is not sure which room it will be, if we do it like the last years, it will be room number 115 in the building AW1. Last year this was the smaller of the two hacking rooms and we had no real problem with conquering (and holding) the first row in this room. There were not too many power outlets, so this year at least Ivanovic will bring one multi-outlet power strip plus some extension cable (5m or something like this). There is no wired network, everything wireless (and sometimes rather/very unstable!). Beside this you should bring laptops since there are no computers available for hacking. </p><p>Short version: </p> <pre>AW1 - Room 115 (at least on Saturday) </pre> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Discussions_and_Results">Discussions and Results</span></h2> <p>We usually discuss all sorts of things at FOSDEM, this section is basically a (really short) summary of things that were discussed including their results. First are the discussions that were done "in plenum" with basically all attendees around. At the bottom is an area meant for discussions that were held in sub groups that not all devs might be aware of that were around. </p><p>If you plan any discussions with the other Wesnoth folks, please list them below. After having had the discussion, please make sure to at least post some short words about the topic and the results. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Placeholder_Topic">Placeholder Topic</span></h3> <p>Placeholder text for a (planned or past) discussion </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="The_Open_Source_Game_Development_Devroom">The Open Source Game Development Devroom</span></h3> <p>Ivanovic organized another Open Source Game Development Devroom which will take place on Sunday 3rd in room AW1.125. At least two Wesnoth team members plan to hold a talk: Boucman about the Wesnoth animation engine and Ivanovic about translations of open source games. The <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://fosdem.org/2013/schedule/track/open_source_game_development/">schedule</a> is already available on the fosdem website. </p><p>If you want to have an idea what was talked about last year, just have a look at the old <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://fosdem.org/2012/schedule/track/open_source_game_development_devroom">schedule with many interesting talks and presentations</a>.
