Hello,
not all of you may have seen this announcement.
Since RDO is a *distribution*, it should fit to the scope of
the Distribution Devroom.

FOSDEM 2016 - Distributions Devroom Call for Participation
The Distributions devroom will take place 30 & 31 January, 2016 at FOSDEM, in
room K.4.201 at Université Libre de Bruxelles, in Brussels, Belgium.
As Linux distributions converge on similar tools, the problem space overlapping
different distributions is growing. This standardization across the
distributions presents an opportunity to develop generic solutions to the
problems of aggregating, building, and maintaining the pieces that go into a
distribution.
We welcome submissions targeted at developers interested in issues unique to
distributions, especially in the following topics:
- Cross-distribution collaboration on common issues, eg: content distribution and
documentation
- Working with vendor relationships (eg. cloud providers, non-commodity hardware vendors
etc )
- The future of distributions, emerging trends and evolving user demands from the idea of
a platform
- User experience management ( onboarding new users, facilitating technical growth, user
to contribution transitions etc )
- Building trust and code relationships with the upstream components of a distribution
- Solving traditional problems like package management, and content management (eg.
rpm/dpkg/ostree/coreos )
- Contributor resource management, centralised trust management, key trust etc
- Integration technologies like installers, deployment facilitation ( eg. cloud
contextualisation )
Submissions may be in the form of 30-55 minute talks, panel sessions,
round-table discussions, Birds of a Feather (BoF) sessions or lightning talks.
