It’s that time of year again – LinuxTag is here

Yes, it is. LinuxTag (LT) conference and fair starts tomorrow. We have a new location, moving away from Berlin Messe, the big convention center, to a more cozy place called The Station. So everyone involved is real excited about how the new concept is going to pan out. We again share a booth with Debian and Kanotix.

This year we have two big surprises for our visitors. For one we do a Linux quiz with valuable prices, like a Intel NUC mini-pc, a Raspberry Pi, accompanied by a book with projects for it, a beginners book about learning Python and t-shirts and USB-Sticks.

Secondly we will have our by now traditonal release for LT. This one is kind of special, as it is the first official appearance of a new desktop environment. Today the teams behind LXDE and Razor-Qt have, with a little help from siduction, released the first version of the united LXQt desktop environment, based on the Qt framework, LXQt 0.7.0. During LT we will offer an image for download and on display at LT that features the newcomer.

So, if you are in town, come see us on community day, which is on Saturday, May 10th, when admission is €10 only. We throw a little party at our booth with beer and snacks at 16:00, announcing the winners of our little quiz.
