            <description><![CDATA[
<p>As mentioned in the earlier <a href="http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/call_for_presentations-open_mobile_linux_at_fosdem_2012/">call for presentations</a>, we're running a <a href="http://fosdem.org/2012/schedule/track/open_mobile_linux_devroom">track on Open Mobile Linux</a> in FOSDEM this Saturday. <a href="http://fosdem.org/2012/schedule/room/aw1120">Room AW1.120</a> at the ULB campus in Brussels. From the CfP:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Our primary goal is to facilitate meetups, collaboration and awareness  between different projects and communities within Open Mobile Linux and  provide a place to present directions, ideas and your projects  themselves.<br /><br /> By Open Mobile Linux we mean any open source  projects revolving around typical non-desktop/server Linux, such as  handsets, tablets, netbooks or other creative uses. Examples of such  projects could be <a href="http://qt.nokia.com/">Qt5</a>, <a href="http://merproject.org/">Mer</a>, <a href="https://meego.com/">MeeGo</a>, <a href="http://www.android.com/">Android</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebOS">webOS</a>, <a href="http://plasma-active.org/">Plasma Active</a>, <a href="https://www.tizen.org/">Tizen</a>, <a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G">Boot to Gecko</a>, <a href="http://shr-project.org/trac">SHR</a> and other related efforts.</p>
</blockquote>
