So we better get moving! \r\n\r\nBelow is a proposal draft. Please comment / amend as you see fit:\r\n\r\nTitle of devroom:\r\nOpen source design\r\n\r\nElaborate description of proposed devroom (including possible topics):\r\nThe first open source design devroom last year was a success, with a healthy number of proposals submitted and great attendance. We would like to repeat this year. The goal of this devroom is to showcase design work done within free and open source projects, and strengthen the connections between designers involved in FOSS. We mean \"design\" in a broad sense, and we include within that term typography, graphic design, interaction design, user experience and design research activities. \r\n\r\nPossible topics include:\r\n\r\n* FOSS design tools\r\n* Design techniques and deliverables\r\n* Design - engineering collaboration approaches\r\n* User engagement and design research activities \r\n* Project case studies \r\n\r\nAfter receiving several requests, we will probably dedicate an hour to project pitches, so that projects looking for design contributions can introduce themselves and establish contact with designers eager to help. \r\n\r\nWhy does it fit FOSDEM?\r\nFOSS projects bring in particular challenges that affect almost every aspect of design. Techniques and approaches used in closed software settings must be re-purposed and adapted to FOSS. This is hard to do on your own. We hope that sharing experiences across projects and communities will help establish a set of practices that are effective, flexible and transferable across FOSS projects. \r\n\r\nThe devroom last year also proved to be a great way of connecting designers with FOSS projects looking for design contributors."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/opensourcedesign/events/issues/comments/172794382","html_url":"https://github.com/opensourcedesign/events/issues/22#issuecomment-172794382","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/opensourcedesign/events/issues/22","id":172794382,"user":{"login":"belenbarrospena","id":684113,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/684113?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena","html_url":"https://github.com/belenbarrospena","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/belenbarrospena/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-01-19T09:45:03Z","updated_at":"2016-01-19T09:45:03Z","body":"@yoroy Sorry to hear :(\r\n\r\n@jancborchardt excellent.
