PSA: There's going to be a lot of systemd related stuff going on at FOSDEM this weekend. Many folks from the systemd camp and adjacent will be hanging out at the Image-Based Linux & Boot Integrity devroom:
And then your's truly will give four talks, at various different places. First of all I have a keynote:
https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-6648-14-years-of-systemd/
And unlike some well-known billionaire I am not going to chicken out of my mine. Ha!
And then there are three other talks, in the aforementioned Image-based Linux & Boot Integrity devroom (about systemd & TPMs), in the bootloader devrom (about supercharged UKIs) and in the identity management devroom (about systemd' userdb API).
And of course, outside of the image-based linux track, and other than my own talks there's some more systemd adjacent talks in other tracks, for example, Ani Sinha talks about bring-your-own-firmware UKIs, in confidential computing cloud stuff, booting from mkosi initrd in the network in the distributions devroom (by Antonio Feijoo), running podman containers as systemd services (by Axel Stefanini), and probably some more I missed.
See you all in Brussels!
