From August 21. to 26. there is Campus Party in Berlin. I was asked beforeif I can make suggestions for good speakers from the Free Software community.That is what I did. So beside the already announced keynote speakers like Jon “maddog” Hall, MarkSurman (Mozilla Foundation), and Rainey Reitman (EFF) to following talks will take place in the Free Software track:

  • Daniel Kinzler - Wikidata: implementation and integration of Wikipedia´s next big thing
  • Hugo Roy – Why Free Software needs Network Neutrality?
  • Lydia Pintscher - Free Software: Your chance to change the world and how to get there
  • Matthias Kirschner – An endangered species: computer as a universal machine
  • Matthias Kirschner – The FSFs – Fighting for your freedom, since 1985
  • Peter Bubestinger - Record. Mix. Master: professional audio production with Free Software

I also suggested the following speakers, which are now confirmed for other tracks:

  • Alessandro Rubini – THOS: Two Hour Operating System
  • Frank Karlitschek - Free Software and Cloud Data Storage
