[Tl;DR at bottom]
Aloha!
The FOSS world is huge and everyday new ideas are born and new software is written. But how do these software end up on Debian? How is it made possible for us to just run `apt-get install foo` to install these software?
Well, the answer to these questions is packaging[1]. This workshop is aimed at answering questions like these, in depth, and also help everyone build packages for Debian. To help us all with packaging, we've invited a distinguished personality from the Debian Project, Pirate Praveen. Praveen is a Debian Developer and maintains a lot of packages in the Debian project. You can find out more about Praveen on his Debian wiki page.[2]
The workshop will be held at Reserved-bit[3]. This workshop is open to all and there are no registration fees. However, note that we have limited seating capacity at the venue. Seating arrangement will be on a first-come-first-serve basis. The workshop will span over two days (09th June and 10th June 2018), so everyone can be rest assured that all the points will be covered in depth.
Don't forget to bring your laptops!
